Welcome to Monday's edition of Patch PM, as we kick off what promises to be a snowy week in Rhode Island. Here's a look at today's top stories. Rhode Island Receives First 3,000 Pfizer Coronavirus VaccinesFrontline health care workers are first in line to receive the coronavirus vaccine. Rhode Island Correctional Officer Dies From CoronavirusLt. Russell Freeman served in the women's facility. Rhode Island's Electors Cast Votes For Joe BidenGov. Gina Raimondo said it was "a great day for our democracy." Opinion: Rental Assistance Is HereThe new state budget bill includes rental assistance for Rhode Islanders behind on payments. One final thought for today: To this day, my favorite part of significant snowfall is scooping some up and making "snow cones" with maple syrup. When I was a kid, I'd pour it right onto the snow and crawl though to eat it (tasted better that way!) Did anyone else do this? Maybe it's just a French-Canadian thing? Let me know in the comments!
