It was a terrible experience. Very scary. Several family members had four + feet of water in their homes. I had just gotten a job at a tv station in Charleston, and Hugo took our broadcast tower. We were off the air for over a month, and at reduced power for several after that.
After I had moved to Charlotte, there was a hurricane coming up the coast (I think it was Floyd) and they predicted it would follow Hugo's path. I must say I freaked out a little.

Weedy, having worked many years as a broadcast tech, & packed a bag to take to work, many tiimes when storms were predicted, I have to ask, were you in the station over-night when Hugo hit?
We got Floyd.....you didn't miss a thing, unless you enjoy flooding.
