Gov. McMaster: ‘Don’t let your guard down yet’

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WSAV) – South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster says the state is in its third act of Tropical Storm Debby.

The storm made its second landfall near Bulls Bay, South Carolina, early Thursday morning.

Flooding is now the top concern, particularly around the Pee Dee and Edisto rivers.

“It still will be difficult in those areas that experienced it before,” McMaster said, adding that the conditions won’t be as bad as they were during Hurricanes Matthew and Florence.

The South Carolina Emergency Management Division remains at OPCON 1, its highest level of readiness.

“Just want to remind everybody out there that it’s not over yet,” McMaster said. “We’ve passed some dangers but there are still plenty, so don’t let your guard down yet.”
