Interacting with a cold front as it traversed Alabama, the remnants of Hilda caused gusts as strong as in Mobile and Baldwin counties, downing telecommunication lines, uprooting trees, and shattering windows. Piers lining Mobile Bay were either destroyed or damaged. Five people were injured in those two counties. Strong winds in Russell and Lee counties damaged or destroyed several buildings, injuring four. In addition to straight-line winds, three tornadoes occurred across six counties in Alabama, with one injuring three people after damaging five homes, a hospital, and a plant. Although rainfall peaked well inland at , damage as a result of rain was limited to the coast, where the combination of high tides and rain resulted in minor coastal inundation. As the remnants of Hilda moved across the Florida Panhandle on October 4–5, rough surf was produced, with high tides causing minor tidal inundation along the Florida coast. One person drowned in the high surf produced by the storm off of Pensacola, Florida on October 4. Squalls in western and northern Florida produced heavy rain, with a maximum occurring in Wewahitchka, which received . The precipitation produced localized flooding in the Tallahassee area. The squalls also produced strong winds, at times gusting to near Pensacola. A station at Naval Air Station Pensacola clocked a gust. These winds caused minor damage limited to uprooted trees and broken limbs.
