Hello Sunshine! Cold start with temperatures in the 20s, 30s and 40s. I like the Block Island sunrise picture this morning...sun peeking through the clouds with the Block Island Ferry approaching the island.

This is one of the most impressive sun pillars I've ever seen....look at that beam of light shining straight up into the sky! I think this may be a contender for a Top 12 Sunrise for 2025. Perfect recipe for a pretty sunrise: mid level clouds with a break on the horizon.

So nice to see anything but gray skies this morning! Beautiful colors in the skies about 10 minutes before sunrise. I think my favorite is Scituate this morning. 🙂

Was burning like a silver flame.
The summit of beauty and love,
And Venus was her name."
Luckiest people in Southern New England this morning are on that boat. Many people are socked in with clouds and fog, but that fishing boat had a great view of the sunrise. Wow...I'm jealous

Chilly this morning just before sunrise with mainly clear skies. Most areas are in the 40s or 50s, a couple of 30s out there, too 😳

EARTHQUAKE: Did you feel this small earthquake in Rhode Island last night? A magnitude 1.8 quake was centered about 3 miles east of Narragansett around 11:36PM. Felt in Warwick, South Kingstown and Newport.

Oh my goodness. Look at this sunrise! Showers are moving out, clouds are breaking, sunlight peaking through....wow. What do you think? Should this make the Top 12 list for sunrises of the year?

Oh. My.
Top 12'er for 2025 right here. Before the clouds and rain showers took over, we had a stunning sunrise. I'm putting these in the Top 12 Sunrise Photos for 2025. Fantastic start to our Friday!
A chilly, cloudless sunrise this morning. Most spots were in the 40s and 50s, but a couple communities were in the 30s! Yikes.

Quite the sunrise this morning! Some high clouds around gave us a cool-looking sky. It looks like there was even a sun pillar, more pronounced on the East Providence camera.

The sun is playing peek-a-boo this morning through some clouds and haze. We'll likely see a lot of clouds today with some occasional hazy sun.

🎶Just another smo-ky sunrise. 🎵
Wildfire smoke in our skies again this morning. There's an Air Quality Alert for Massachusetts.
Napatree Point in Westerly! It’s the western most point in Rhode Island.
This morning’s sunrise was super cool, literally. It was 51°! In the sky, there were delicate thin cirrus clouds which seemed to emanate from the sun as it was rising.
Awesome sunrise in central and northern Rhode Island. The south coast is clouded-in with fog. We'll see some showers arrive later today.
