The Perfect Storm

The Perfect Storm occurred in Gloucester, Massachusetts in October of 1991. It is the true story of the tragic death of six sword-fishermen and the sinking of their boat the Andrea Gail. They got stuck in the middle of the collision of Hurricane Grace and a cold front coming from the northwest. Their attempt to escape the storm was unsuccessful and they ultimately drowned. According to the National Climatic Data Center, The Perfect Storm resulted in damages costing hundreds of millions of dollars. Here are some satellite pictures of the storm.
