Viral Videos Show Hurricane Nicole's Damage In Florida & The Massive Flooding

Hurricane Nicole made landfall in Florida overnight as a category 1 hurricane and severely damaged cities across the state. Many people published to TikTok the destruction caused by high winds, major flooding and strong ocean waves.

Lauderdale-By-The-Sea in South FL to Daytona Beach in Central FL and even up towards St. Augustine in North FL were impacted by the storm surge.

In St. Augustine, the winds brought the sea foam inland, showing, what some TikTokers called the closest thing Florida would get for a Winter Wonderland, as it looked like snow. In one recording, you can even see how hard the wind blew the palm trees.

One woman (@eastcoastdiy) in Daytona posted a clip that received 4.6 million views revealing the pool popping out of the ground in her backyard. She gave her audience consistent updates on the impact of Nicole.

It wasn't just homes that were affected. The waves completely wiped out the beach in the area as well.

Another creator, @fatheadmcgeee, showed the extreme flooding from the ocean totally wiping out the entrance of the beach.

The waves were so strong, the account, @ronsrides, uploaded a similar video and even showed buildings collapsing along with the road broken off.

The Southern cities are quite popular this time of year as "snowbirds" flock to areas with warmer weather. One popular spot, Lauderdale-By-The-Sea, had such strong waves they broke down the pier in half.

"RIP LBTS pier 💛 Let’s hope this doesn’t take 10 years to rebuild," someone published a picture on Instagram.

The state recently saw the heartbreaking impacts of a natural disaster with Hurricane Ian just about a month ago, and to have a storm hit such as this one in the middle of November is not so typical.

Nicole is already has weaken back down to a tropical storm.
