The storm made its closest approach to our area when it passed by the Santee River about 25 miles offshore. The storm mostly spared the GA Coastal Empire from significant impacts but portions of the SC Lowcountry weren't as lucky as tropical storm force wind gusts, flooding rainfall and minor coastal flooding occurred, mainly northeast of Charleston.

Around midnight on September 22nd, Hugo slammed into the coast with it’s center passing just north of Charleston, at Sullivan’s Island.
