Posted: 09:11 AM ET

MYRTLE BEACH, South Carolina (CNN) - Tropical Storm Hanna landed on the Carolina coast without much fanfare early Saturday, battering beaches with large waves and threatening flash floods with heavy rains.

As of 8 a.m., flooding, wind damage and power outages were limited, according to emergency officials.

"It's actually going fairly well, with some reports of minor flooding," said South Carolina Emergency Management spokesman Derrec Becker.
