Yes, Tropical storm Gaston is expected to fluctuate between hurricane or high tropical storm force winds before making landfall due to its slow intensification, and slow movement off the south carolina coast, Areas around the Little River Inlet, in SC should receive the worst winds/rainfall in the northeast quadrant of Gaston, this includes the Myrtle Beach, Sunset beach, and Ocean Isle beach areas.Based on current models it should make landfall south of the afforementioned areas.
The main threat expected from gaston to these areas will be the great rainfall caused by slow movement of the storm.
