Newport Police: It’s over. Now you can relax, even if the storm put you there….
The severe winds have subsided, but roads may have standing water due to the heavy rain. More rain is expected in the next couple of days. All areas of Newport have been checked for hazards within the last hour. None exist at this time.
Newport Police Department would like to thank everyone who stayed inside today and limited their driving. Many hazards existed throughout the day, including sizeable flying debris and lines down around the City.
