The 5-year-old marsupial hopped away from a home in a Jupiter Farms subdivision, where he's been raised alongside six other kangaroos.
Owner Eric Westergard describes Storm as 4 feet tall and 45 pounds, with tawny fur, black paws and a powerful long tail.
Westergard tells the Palm Beach Post that Storm is laid-back unless he's startled.
Wildlife officers plan to subdue Storm with a tranquilizer dart and return him to Westergard.
