Nestor has moved into Georgia after the former tropical storm made landfall on Florida's northern Gulf Coast and spun off at least three tornadoes.
Nestor made landfall Saturday as a post-tropical cyclone after the former tropical storm spawned a tornado that damaged homes and a school in central Florida but spared an area of the Panhandle devastated one year ago by Hurricane Michael.
Another suspected tornado in southwest Florida damaged at least a dozen homes in Cape Coral, some severely, the Police Department said in a statement. No injuries were reported. Another tornado was reported in Pinellas County, producing minor damage at a mobile home park. Seawater pushed inland by the storm could rise as much as 5 feet as storm surge in Florida’s Big Bend region, much of which is less developed than the rest of the state’s coast.
