At least six people died and about 1.2 million customers remained without power Friday after former Hurricane Zeta hit the Gulf Coast and rushed inland this week.

Zeta -- the 27th storm of the Atlantic hurricane season -- made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 2 storm Wednesday before weakening to a post-tropical cyclone by Thursday afternoon.
