Tropical Storm Michael unleashed strong winds and heavy rain on several southeastern U.S. states Thursday after devastating parts of the Florida Panhandle as a major hurricane.

At least six people were reported killed by Michael, the most powerful hurricane on record in that area, and the third strongest to hit the U.S. mainland.
Authorities said the toll was expected to rise, as rescue crews rushed to communities devastated by the storm.

Gov. Rick Scott promised a strong relief effort from his administration, speaking one day after then-Hurricane Michael tore into the Panhandle.

"We are going to be aggressive with recovery and response over the coming days and will do everything we can to assist our communities that have seen impacts from this devastating storm," Scott said.

He also called on people in hurricane-hit communities to stay in their homes to give emergency crews room to carry out their work.
