This photograph depicted a South Carolina farm house that was destroyed after hurricane Hugo made landfall north of Charleston, September 21, 1989. Late in the evening, the eye of Hurricane Hugo struck the coast of South Carolina north of Charleston. Winds of 135 mph, a tidal surge of 12-17 feet, and heavy rains killed dozens of people, and caused 7 billion dollars in damage. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) personnel were deployed to assist in the control of communicable disease, and safety-related issues.
