Florida residents are being warned not to visit areas hit by Hurricane Milton as clean up and rescue operations continue.  

There's still flooding in many areas, and NBC is reporting there have been 10 deaths in various parts of the state.  

More than three million properties remain without power.  

US correspondent Mitch McCann in St Augustine, Florida, told Ryan Bridge that in many parts of Florida, it wasn’t as bad as it was forecast to be. 

Some areas have been hit very badly, such as St Petersburg, where a baseball stadium had its roof ripped off, and a crane toppled into and destroyed a building just a few streets over.
