Tropical Depression Nicole: Thousands of Florida residents still without power

Florida was impacted by severe weather from Nicole

Tens of thousands of Florida residents are still without power on Friday morning following the deadly impact of Tropical Depression Nicole.

According to tracker PowerOutage.US, more than 38,000 customers do not have electricity as of 10 a.m. ET.

The storm sent heavy rains fallings from the Southeast and up the East Coast as flooding receded from the Sunshine State's coastline. 

Nicole made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane early Thursday morning, killing at least five people.

The severe weather toppled homes into the Atlantic Ocean and Nicole caused flooding inland, with some rivers nearing flood levels, according to the National Weather Service. 

Volusia County building inspectors declared 24 hotels and condos in Daytona Beach Shores and New Smyrna Beach, as well as at least 25 single-family homes in Wilbur-by-the-Sea, to be structurally unsafe, forcing their evacuations.
