Officials say the confirmed death toll from Hurricane Dorian is currently 43 with the number expected to rise as hundreds of residents are still considered missing.

Up to 13,000 homes were destroyed but authorities said the final number of deaths could be 'staggering'.

The category five storm was downgraded to a category one as it made landfall on the US south-east coast with winds of up to 90mph. The category one storm came ashore on Friday morning at Cape Hatteras on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, where more than 200,000 homes and businesses were without power. Image: Getty
