Anniversary of the Perfect Storm
This weekend is the 18-year anniversary of the mother of all Nor'easters, the "Halloween Storm", "Halloween Nor'easter", "Unnamed Hurricane", "No-Name Storm" or "Perfect Storm" (which of course was the title of a book and movie). This storm occurred when Hurricane Grace transferred its energy into a low pressure system off the Northeast Coast (something that almost happened in 2005 with Hurricane Wilma).
You can read more about this storm on NCDC's website, NOAA's report, or WikiPedia.
