Did you know?
In 1989, Hurricane Hugo hit the coast of SC between Charleston and McClellanville. Although more than $4 billion worth of damage was reported, surprisingly, Charleston's historic district suffered little damage. However, 40 miles north of Charleston, the area was not so fortunate. Francis Marion National Forest - a 250,000-acre parcel of swamps, huge oaks, pines, and lakes that was an Indian homeland for 10,000 years - was almost leveled by Hugo's fury.
