Severe storms across Florida, Georgia, and Alabama have left over 20,000 homes and businesses without power.
Florida is the hardest-hit state, with more than 9,500 customers affected, especially in Miami-Dade and Broward counties.
As the storm intensifies, heavy winds and torrential rain are expected to cause even more power outages in the coming days.
Authorities warn that the outages could continue to grow as the storm moves through the region.
