There are some beach closures to keep in mind for this Weekend. Rhode Island health officials are telling residents not to swim at King's Park Beach in Newport and Third Beach in Middletown because of high bacteria counts. 

The Health Department will reopen the beaches to swimming when bacteria counts return to safe levels.
