Five Things To Know For The Weekend

With a high of 29 degrees, it's just another balmy day in North Kingstown. But, for those suffering from seasonal affective disorder, we may have some good news for you. We present our five things to know for the coming weekend.

1. It's  23 degrees right now in North Kingstown. Though many of us are in despair over the depressing weather, there is hope. Tomorrow's high temperature is...Hark! It's going to be over freezing! Temperatures look to creep up to nearly 40º this weekend. For the full forecast, check here.
2. If those high temps aren't enough to persuade you to brave the elements, there are plenty of indoor activities going on this weekend. Tomorrow morning, head over to the North Kingstown Community enter on Beach Street for an indoor yard sale, . 
3. Busy Saturday morning but still want to give back to the community? Head over to Junction Trattoria & Bistro for a fundraiser to benefit the NKHS Music Department. The cast of its upcoming installment of West Side Story will be on hand to serve patrons from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Ten percent of the proceeds made during that time will benefit the department.

4. Dear men: Monday is Valentine's Day ... as in this weekend is your last chance to plan a dinner/buy a gift/woo a certain someone to avoid the dog house for the next year. (Note: Don't you dare think you can get away with buying a plush toy and chocolate during your lunch break on Monday. We'll see right through it.) Here are some of places to go on Valentine's Day for a romantic dinner.
5. Today is National Inventors' Day. We'd like to thank Thomas Edison for his many contributions, Tony Fadell for the iPod and that guy who thought up the Snuggie. Well done, gentlemen.
