A series of severe thunderstorms on July 3 left trees down, fireworks canceled and power out across Rhode Island.
Several cities canceled their planned July 3 fireworks shows, though some, like East Providence and Bristol, ended up having to set their fireworks off anyways because of safety concerns.
As of 9 a.m. on July 4, more than 50,000 Rhode Islanders were without power according to the RI Energy outage map. The website for the map itself was even down for much of the morning.
Across the state, users on social media platforms X and Reddit posted about trees down across roads and into houses in Scituate, West Greenwich, Bristol and elsewhere.
Here’s a look at some of the damage across the state:
