I think the point they're trying to make is that it will impact millions of people. Yes, it's not likely to give RI a dose of 80+ kt winds...but it's still going to cause some damage.
Remember as well that the impact south of us is still likely to be large, and the overall story is about the storm...not just RI.
That being said, my neighbor is boarding up his house tonight while I am not. The awning might still need to come down though...
