No School in North Kingstown Monday; Parking Ban in Effect Starting Sunday Night

It’s déjà vu all over again as another winter storm is expected to bring between six and eight inches of snow in North Kingstown beginning late Sunday into Monday.

As a result, North Kingstown students will have the day off from school once again on Monday after a rather short week last week thanks to the most-recent blizzard that dropped nearly 20 inches of snow to most of the town.

A parking ban will go into effect at 10 p.m. Sunday and will continue until further notice, according to the North Kingstown Police Department.

The storm has also thrown another wrinkle into the trash collection schedule. There will be no pickup on Monday and the rest of the week will operate on a one-day delay.

The North Kingstown Senior Center will be closed and all programs are cancelled for Monday as well.

Forecasters have cited a high degree of unpredictability with the impending storm as the changeover from snow to rain and back to snow could vary dramatically along the shore and several miles inland.

A Winter Storm Warning has been declared and will remain in effect until 1 a.m. on Tuesday. Snow will develop after midnight tonight and the accumulation could be rapid during periods of exceptional snowfall. Snowfall rates could reach one to three inches per hour and the morning rush hour is expected to be messy.

Areas could see rain for a period of time late Monday morning, but the precipitation will switch back to snow before the storm is over Monday night.
