The worst of Hurricane Idalia has left residents of a region of tight-knit communities trying to find places to live as they rebuild
Around 120,000 homes and businesses in both states remained without power Friday, according to PowerOutage.us.
Nearly 300 line workers worked to get the power back on, and generators were being set up to help a few restaurants and other businesses operate. One Georgia resident was killed when a tree fell on him as he tried to clear another tree from a road. Officials said there appeared to be a storm-related death around Gainesville, Florida, but did not release details.
Idalia was a tropical storm by the time it reached South Carolina, but it brought a storm surge that — along with a periodic, unusually high tide — flooded Charleston and almost every beach community.
