CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) - Nearly 200 people were in shelters in Charleston, Horry and Georgetown counties as Tropical Storm Hanna spun toward the South Carolina coast.
Spokespeople at the counties' Emergency Operations Centers said 101 people were staying in Charleston County shelters, 60 were in Horry County shelters and 27 were in Georgetown.
By 5:45 p.m., a shelter at Stall High School in North Charleston had 41 people, including Mona Scoggins. Her family lost their home in Hurricane Katrina and she wasn't taking any chances.
She lives in Charleston now and says she gets very nervous when a storm approaches.
