black ice. _copious_ black ice.

I was just out jogging and within the last hour or so it's like the whole neighborhood froze over with a light, invisible glaze of ice. Please sand your sidewalk, and please be careful out there.

are you involved in this WRAP thing i got in the mail? it seems like a really good idea :)
though it states that car break-ins are on the rise in this area- do you happen to know Where specifically?

thaaaankyou morgan :)
i'm about three weeks behind on the majority of lj reading so i didn't know your car was broken into! ....you know who i am, right? i won the Pimp stick at frommy's NYE gala- i'm his roomie from KY who had the car stolen from his old rozzy place, so i now have a bit of valid paranoia on the issue.

i've been locking the gps i got for xmas in my glove compartment- is that easy to break into?

Don't leave anything valuable in your car, ever.

If it's a gps that has a suction cup attachment, leaving the cradle on the window suggests that you have a gps, and it's probably in the car still ... same with leaving the little tel-tale ring marks on the window.

And yes, a glovebox is easy to break into.

No map for 28 Jan-Feb 4 yet ;)

Car break-ins have been an issue for a while, but for a few weeks there were _significantly_ more of them in the Willow/Cedar/Lowell St area, south of Ball Square towards Davis. Last week's crime report had somewhat less of a concentration in that area.

But I did notice some burglaries ( as in houses or shops ) this week around Davis in that report. Highland, Elm, Porter St, College Ave, and one of the little streets west of Powderhouse.

I haven't made the map (yet, work stuff has me busy), but if you want, go for it.

I'm not involved in it (I don't work for the city or the police department), but you're reminding me that I should register my laptop. To read about recent car break-ins, click on the crime tag and look at all of the January posts.
