Hurricane Nicole on Thursday became the first hurricane in 40 years to hit the United States in the month of November.
The storm made landfall overnight along Florida's eastern shore, knocking out power to thousands, damaging buildings and flooding the coast. Some of the affected areas are still recovering from Hurricane Ian's impact in September.
Nicole weakened to a tropical storm Thursday as it moved toward the state's west coast and then north into Georgia and the Carolinas.
