Tuesday, May 1st, 2007 — Rhode Island is prepping for the worst hurricane to ever crash into New England — on paper at least. About 250 federal emergency management officials plan to stage a response to the fictional "Hurricane Yvette’’ from a "storm center’’ at the Cranston Street Armory in Providence. A response team will gather only knowing that the Category-3 hurricane has ravaged Long Island and is gaining steam as it heads toward Narragansett Bay.
