The Rhode Island Weather Index is a collection of references to weather products of interest to mariners, particularly sailors, on Rhode Island waters. These waters include Narragansett Bay and Block Island Sound. The site was designed to place all pertinent regional weather information on a single page so that there is no longer a need for frustrating searches of the thousands of weather sources available. Each link is annotated on this page to give the viewer a preview of what will be found by following the link.
