David hits <
CHARLESTON (AP) ?
Hurricane David hit South
Carolina Tuesday evening, aiming
its weakened but deadly winds at
the coastal areas.
Residents of coastal islands from
Hilton Head to Myrtle Beach were
evacuated as the storm bore down
with 90 mph gusts and heavy rain.
Gov. Dick Riley in the early afternoon
extl?nHprt mnnHnfnru
evacuation orders to all islands
and low-lying areas and put the
state's National Guard on alert to
help.
David was expected to strike
hardest about 7 p.m. after coming
asnore near tne Georgia border.
High tide for Charleston came at
7:13 p.m., and civil defense officials
ordered residents of lowlying
areas of this 300-year-old city
and its suburbs to go to higher _
ground.
THE ASHLEY RIVER that
borders the west side of the city
had 3-foot whitecaps at midafternoon.
Some streets were
flooded.
John Purvis of the National
Weather Service in Columbia said,
"At the rate it's moving ? some 12
to 15 mph ? it will be affecting
South Carolina throughout the
night, especially along the coastal
areas."
A hurricane warning was posted
northward to Cape Fear, N.C.
Boats were securely moored or
hauled from the water late Monday
and early Tuesday along the shore,
where residents also braced doors

"EVERYBODY'S SCARED,"
said Bernard Brown, who fled his
Charleston home with his family to
the city auditorium for shelter.
"We'll be glad when it's over

headlights burning in rain, moved
to the west from Charleston all
day. Those who remained in their
homes in the peninsula port were
urged to stay inside and listen to
broadcast reDorts on the storm.
Law enforcement authorities
guided cars jamming U.S. 17 in
downtown Myrtle Beach.

Families headed for shelters
were asked to bring food.
ABOUT 4,000 persons, most from
the plush Hilton Head Island
resort, took shelter at a high school
and an adjoining junior high on the
Beaufort County mainland at
Bluff ton. The two-lane bridge
leading to Hilton Head was shut to
incoming traffic late in the morning
after residents and guests of
the island's resorts were told to
evacuate.
Steve Ballowe, principal of the
schools, said, "We're expecting
right now to hold through the night.
It's not just tourists in here. It's
natives of the area who wisely
have listened to good advice.
