The Windermere Police Department has issued an update on the aftermath of Tropical Storm Nicole.

Windermere Police Chief David Ogden said the officers have been assessing damage to the town since 11 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 10.

Ogden said although the damage is not bad compared to past storms, at approximately 9:41 a.m. some power went out due to a tree limb on Bessie Street near E. Sixth Avenue.

"Duke was notified immediately to place us on their action list," the chief said on social media. "The police department is on this same grid and under generator power at this time."

In addition, the town has an assessment of all locations for the town's tree vendor to begin some removals. Public works has also started to fix roadways.

Those who see any new fall downs should reach out via the 24-hour non-emergency number at (407) 905-6333.

For emergencies, call 9-1-1.
