How bad is the traffic on I-195? See road conditions in RI with these live traffic cameras
How much snow will RI get this weekend? See predictions, impacts
A high impact storm stretching from Texas to the East Coast could bring significant snowfall on Jan. 25 and Jan. 26.
If you’re asking yourself “How are the roads today?” before heading out, there’s an easy way to check: the RIDOT traffic cameras.
With the coming storm expected to be the biggest of the year, travel will likely be difficult. If you absolutely have to drive, one thing that can help is checking the roads before you leave your home.
The Department of Transportation has live traffic cameras for every major artery of the state highway system, giving drivers an easy way to check on if it’s icy on Interstate 295, if there’s an accident on Interstate 95 or if there is traffic backup on the Claiborne Pell Bridge heading into, or out of, Newport.
Here are the cameras available:

Attorney General Neronha endorses Democrat Helena Foulkes for Rhode Island Governor
(WJAR) — Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha endorsed Democrat Helena Foulkes in her bid for Rhode Island Governor on Thursday.
Neronha spoke at a campaign event with Foulkes.
The term-limited Attorney General says he hadn’t been comfortable endorsing people because of his position.
Neronha said he had gotten to know Foulkes after she reached out to him about health care, an issue Neronha has been vocal about.
“I found Helena to be a great listener, a great thought partner, a person of integrity and character, and that is foremost why I’m endorsing her today,” he said.
“What Rhode Island needs today and into the future is strong capable leadership,” he said. “This is not a state that can afford to keep muddling around in the four, eight, ten, fifteen years.”
He said Foulkes could offer bold leadership.
Neronha has publicly admitted to having a strained relationship with Gov. Dan McKee.

Ranking Rhode Island’s Most Popular Charity License Plates – Rhode Island Monthly
When it comes to expressing ourselves, Rhode Islanders have elevated license plates to an art form. You might not be able to get a new vanity plate — the state suspended applications in 2021 after a judge ruled a Tesla owner could keep his FKGAS plates — but you can still express your Rhody pride with one of seventeen state-approved charity plates. The program has funded ocean research, thrown parades, saved crumbling lighthouses and even provided meals for residents. About half of the $43.50 surcharge goes to the associated charity, while the other half covers the production cost.
