The major 2010 earthquakes in Haiti and Chile should make you wonder about your insurance policies and whether you have insurance coverage for an earthquake. The Lowcountry does lie on a fault line and the September 1886 earthquake that hit the Charleston area caused extensive damage. It was the most damaging earthquake to occur in the Southeast United States and one of the largest historic shocks in Eastern North America being a 7.3 magnitude quake.
