hmm, well yea, I lived in Wilmington during both of these hurricanes...Bertha we only lost 9 trees in our yard, Fran we lost 23 (4 of which fell on our house, and we also had a tornado come through and rip my basketball goal out of the ground and throw it down the street)...I'd say Fran was worse.. Insurance company loved us that year.
bertha was fun. fran was for real. wrightsville/wilmington was hurricane central in the late 90's. i remember sitting in my car outside my apartmentment during the peak of fran to listen to the radio updates. after a couple minutes decided it'd be smart to wear a seatbelt for fear of the car blowing over..
The Hatteras always gets blasted the worst with trpoical storms depressions and low category hurricanes near seas

I was 1 years old when this storm hit and we were visiting my grandmother in Myrtle Beach and we were leaving right when this storm was moving in.

Fran was bad for us as well, she blew the roof off of our brick home in whiteville.

Fran is no longer a hurricane name. There's a Hurricane Bertha in the Atlantic right now. Guess which was worse.

@nationaltreasure77 by far fran. if you look up the two on wikipedia, the difference in damage is very evident

I got chased from Boy scout Camp, for this storm. [even though we were in Edisto, SC which is near charleston]. But it was scary indeed.

Bertha was not bad... We didn't get hit by her at least in maryland.
