Talked to Carol Riewe this morning, as of 9 a.m. Zeus and one juvenile had been spotted. I offered to do watch duty and she will call me if necessary.

The storm came later than expected and was followed by another more intense storm with serious winds, I estimate some gusts of at least 60 mph. In the downtown South Bend area several massive trees were uprooted, as well as metal traffic lights pulled right out of the ground. There is now power downtown, at least at the library, so maybe the web cam is up. I have no way to check.

I will try to keep everyone updated, but I have a lot of work to do at my house and no electricity, so it may take me longer to post. I am just grateful that my friends and neighbors are all unharmed, as well as myself and my beloved cat.

SWINK, the young ones have been spending most of their time away from the nest, so hopefully both of them are ok. I will update when I can. Thank you Swink , and all of you, for caring.

Gratefully,

I am hoping they all weathered the storm ok! It was a whopper of a storm. Had to get my family up, and cats in their carriers for a trip to the basement after midnight last night due to a tornado warning! No tornado thank goodness, but there is heavy damage in the area and a lot of places without power. It was interesting at work to say the least with only 1/3 of our power!

:eggthumbup: MARINEOF2, I AM SO GLAD TO HEAR YOU, YOUR FAMILY AND CATS MADE IT THRU THE STORM SAFELY! I WENT THRU A STORM CALLED A "WET MACROBURST" IN MAY THAT HAD SUSTAINED WINDS OF 70-90MPH AND PEAK WINDS OF 120MPH. BUT, MY DOGS, CAT AND I MADE IT THRU SAFELY AND IN THE END THAT IS WHAT COUNTED. I HOPE THEY LOCATE THE SECOND JUVIE AND WE RECEIVE CONFIRMATION SOON. IT WILL BE DEVASTATING IF WE HAVE LOST ONE OF SCARLETT'S BABES!!!
