A Santa display on Candlewood Drive in North Kingstown looks as though a Godzilla-like giant has kicked it around, due to high winds in the early morning hours. Throughout Southy County the gusts spared no trees or holiday decorations. A dispatcher in North Kingstown said that the weather created a few accidents, and that winds have knocked some trees down on roads throughout the town. Middlebridge Road, the thoroughfare that links Narragansett to South Kingstown, was closed around 8 a.m., according to Dispatcher Jim McClarnon because the waters of the Pettaquamscut River had gotten too high. McClarnon said they expect the bridge to reopen in about a half hour. -- with reports from Talia Buford
