The soaking remains of Hurricane Nicole brought heavy rains to Georgia and the Carolinas on Friday after leaving a trail of destroyed and teetering beachside homes and damaged hotels and condos along Florida’s Atlantic coast and killing at least four people. In Volusia County, local officials evacuated 24 beachside hotels and condos after the structures were deemed unsafe late on Thursday, hours after the storm slammed ashore as a Category 1 hurricane.
