San Marcos, TX (NP) - Temperatures continue to drop throughout Texas, as a surge of unseasonal air moves into the region from the Central Plains. The drastic change in weather has been accompanied by a series of odd stories through middle America.
Thursday afternoon, residents in Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Northern Texas reported what could only be described as a very large cat, breathing ice, terrifying children, and prompting many schools and busineses to close in an effort to keep residents out of harms way.
One local Sheriff noted that the reported cat had not harmed a soul in it's swift journey south, but rather that the ferocious animal seemed to not only be hungry, but stalking a specific prey.
"I wouldn't want to tangle with that thing" the sheriff said, "I don't know where it's going, but I'm headed the opposite direction! That thing looks hungry."
Officals at one attraction felt quite differently, however.
The management at the Dallas Zoo remain upset this afternoon, after what was catagorized as a 'brutal' attack at their facility. A family of bobcats, on loan from another zoo, were destoryed, with barely a bone remaining, earlier today. While confirmation remains impossible, speculation is that the purple beast was at fault.
One of the caretakers at the zoo said "It was pretty obvious that the cat was very specific about it's prey, but I got the idea that this stop was only an appetizer. I don't even want to know what the main course is!"
Reports of the dark purple beast remained sketchy, with local news outlets unable to capture it on film.
Locally, spottings of the beast continue to rise by the hour, leading to some speculation that the animal may have reached it's final destination.
Mayor Susan Clifford Narvaiz released a brief statement to citizens this afternoon. It read as follows:
