Chicago woman worried about her Florida home, business after Hurricane Milton

CHICAGO -- Some Chicagoans are caught in the middle of the cleanup after Hurricane Milton in Florida—taking care of their homes or businesses there.One woman was safely at a friend's house when she talked to CBS News Chicago, but she was still unsure about what would happen next.Leah Chavie said the hardest part the day after Milton made landfall was simply not knowing what has happened to her business and her home on Florida's west coast, near Sarasota.

Chavie said she lost power and internet at both her home and her business, so she has not been able to check the cameras and see how things look.But she was watching news reports last night, and when the power went out, she kept in contact with other business owners on either side of her store.'Right then, all of our hearts kind of sank. I'm like, it's time just to start praying, you know, at this point, because we can't see—and we're all safe,' Chavie said.
