  • Rhode Island Weather March 5 Morning - Winter Weather Advisory

    Rhode Island Weather March 5 Morning - Winter Weather Advisory
    Mar 5 2026
    Good morning. Rhode Island. I'm Aaron Jolly. That drizzle overnight? Just the opening act. The real show starts this morning. In the next 24 hours. Fog rolls in between 8 and 10. Then rain settles in for the day. Providence hits 37 degrees — about 25 degrees cooler than normal for early March. Down at Narragansett Bay, you're looking at 38 with east winds gusting to 22 miles an hour. That damp breeze will make it feel closer to the upper 20s. If you're in northwest Rhode Island, listen up. A Winter Weather Advisory kicks in at 5 P.M. For Northwest Providence and Western Kent. Rain could mix with sleet or freezing rain overnight. Friday morning's commute might get slippery in those spots. Tonight the rain picks up. Providence could see a half inch to three quarters of an inch. Temperatures hold steady in the low to mid 30s, but that east wind makes it feel like 25. Friday stays gray and damp with highs in the mid 30s. But here's where it gets interesting. High pressure builds in this weekend. Saturday climbs near 50. Sunday pushes into the mid 50s. And Tuesday? We're talking 63 degrees. Spring's knocking on the door — the equinox is just two weeks out. For coastal folks, high tide at Newport hits 25 degrees.6 feet at 8:56 this morning. And if the clouds break tonight, look up. It's a Full Moon. If you found this helpful, a quick rating really helps us out. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

    Rhode Island Weather March 4 Evening - 25° Below Normal
    Mar 4 2026
    Good evening. Rhode Island. I'm Aaron Jolly. Remember that dusting of snow yesterday? It's already fading. We're sitting at 25 degrees in Providence, 27 along the Bay. But don't get too comfortable. Fog creeps in after midnight. And freezing fog could make for a tricky Thursday morning commute. In the next 24 hours. Tonight brings a full moon, though you might struggle to see it through the mist. Lows bottom out around 25 degrees inland, 27 at the coast. Thursday tells a messier story. Rain arrives by 10 A.M. Statewide. Providence sees a 70 percent chance through the afternoon. The Bay gets soaked — 100 percent certainty by early afternoon. Highs only reach 37 to 38 degrees. That's 25 degrees below normal for early March. Here's the twist. Thursday night, that rain turns to freezing rain and sleet across northwest Rhode Island. A Winter Weather Advisory starts at 5 P.M. Thursday and runs through noon Friday. Up to a tenth of an inch of ice could glaze roads and power lines. The Friday morning commute looks slippery. Friday stays raw and gray. Highs near 35 degrees with lingering fog. But the weekend? Complete turnaround. Highs climb to 53 degrees Saturday, then 58 Monday. And 62 by Tuesday. We're talking 25 degrees above normal. Spring is whispering. Just two weeks until the equinox. In Sunrise at 6, 17 A.M., sunset at 5:40 P.M. We're gaining nearly three minutes of daylight today. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
