WASHINGTON (AP) -  President Trump will travel Wednesday to areas impacted by Hurricane Florence in North Carolina and South Carolina, sources tell CNN.

Trump is expected to visit Myrtle Beach while in South Carolina. It is not yet clear where in North Carolina Trump is expected visit.

Sens. Lindsey Graham and Tim Scott are expected to fly on Air Force One with Trump.

Some areas in North Carolina, like Wilmington, are still cut off from the rest of the state.

The Cape Fear River has yet to crest as of Tuesday morning in Fayetteville. The river there has already reached levels above what was measured following Hurricane Matthew in 2016.
