Charleston experiences mild earthquakes every year. I remember in 1976 we had 4 quakes - the largest was a 4.7. However on August 31, 1886, Charleston was almost destroyed by an earthquake measuring 7.3 on the Richter scale damaging 2,000 buildings and killing 60 people. That's why, when you walk downtown, you see the earthquake rods in the older homes.
