The storm caught many by surprise because it moved in so quickly after a period of mild weather.

The storm caught the ship about two hundred miles from land.

But it was now or never- if the storm caught them, he needed a full belly and all of his strength.

We need to get down before that storm catches us!

With all sail if the storm caught us dead on, we would go over and down like a stone.

When the storm caught me, I was very well on my way to being lost.

The first storm caught her still looking for a possible site.

I went too far and my horse died and then a storm caught me.

It was too soon to tell if the storm would catch him.

And my spirits rose as they had not since the storm caught us.
