TIL Desk/World/Florida/ The death toll from hurricane Michael, one of the most powerful storms to make landfall in the US mainland, rose to 11 on Friday, with authorities warning that the number of dead could rise as emergency workers ventured more deeply into the areas devastated by the storm.
Michael made landfall in the Florida Panhandle on Wednesday as a Category 4 hurricane — the strongest on record to hit the area — and charged north through Georgia and into the Carolinas and Virginia, wreaking havoc and causing emergencies.
Rescue teams were in the initial stages of combing the region razed by a Category 4 hurricane that flattened blocks, collapsed buildings and left infrastructure crippled. Over 1.4 million homes had no power in Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Virginia and the Carolinas on Friday morning.
The storm ripped apart entire neighbourhoods, reducing properties to rubble. Michael’s powerful winds and surging seas knocked row after row of Mexico Beach beachfront homes from their foundations.
