Pablo Moreno works near his Hillandale Avenue home in Stamford and tries to walk to his job every day. I usually walk when it doesnt rain, he said Monday as he made his way home.
But with the ever-changing weather this spring, Moreno needs to be prepared for anything when he walks, which is why he wore sunglasses and carried his umbrella.
Looking at this weeks weather forecast, hell need the umbrella a lot more than sunglasses.
