The predicted snow/rain/windstorm was a washout — figuratively and literally.
But before the snow turned to a little bit of rain around midnight, Jonathan Alloy snapped this shot in the Coleytown area. It’s a scene in our yards most of us missed.

The Edge is just over the border, in Norwalk. Plenty of Westporters work out there.
One member writes: “My locker, with a dial combo lock, was broken into last Friday 12:30 p.m., with a sizable loss. With no cameras inside and no witnesses, the thief will likely never be caught.

Today’s “Westport … Naturally” feature is a video.
On Saturday evening, Brian Sikorski spotted a huge bald eagle roosting on a branch outside Brian’s bedroom window. He’s seen a few eagles at Compo Beach and Longshore. As he took a photo, the majestic bird flew to a nearby tree, where a pair with white heads were perched.
“Absolutely breathtaking!” Brian says.

And finally … you knew this was coming:
Most people wouldn’t know this, but dial locks, the ones with the round metal head that you use a three-number combo to open, are a joke to thieves. It takes two seconds for someone who knows how to use a hard thin pin to open. I found out the hard way as well in a NYC YMCA. Since that day I only leave clothes and a towel in a locker. Keys, wallet, etc., stay with me.
Watch “Lock picking lawyer” on youtube. Pretty much every lock has vulnerabilities and can be opened with ease.
