1. Heavy rain causes property damage in West Bay (turnto10.com) — Heavy rain on Sunday flooded parts of Warwick, sending water into yards, sheds, and even homes, and forcing at least one building evacuation in nearby West Warwick. Residents near Scenic Street and Teakwood Avenue say long-standing drainage issues are worsening with heavier storms, leaving some facing costly damage and few clear options for help.
2. Gimme' Shelter: Cheeseburger in Paradise – Cheryl Tudino, RISPCA (rinewstoday.com) — A longtime volunteer at the RISPCA in Warwick is spotlighting Cheeseburger McHowlin, a chatty, affectionate 7‑year‑old beagle looking for a new home.

3. High School Football: Daniel Hand shuts out Bishop Hendricken (on3.com) — Warwick's Bishop Hendricken football team was shut out 28–0 at home by Connecticut powerhouse Daniel Hand, a tough follow‑up to last week's one‑point loss.

Flash Flood Warning issued for much of RI amid intense rains (providencejournal.com) — A Flash Flood Warning is in effect today for much of Rhode Island, specifically including Warwick, with dangerous downpours possible through at least early afternoon.
