I might be over reacting just a smidge but, the latest models for 98L wave show that it will be tracking along or just offshore the Atlantic Seaboard the same time a low will be developing off Cape Hatteras.... A really big storm could be on the way for the East Coast.....Could the 2 storms collide and create something like the Perfect storm????????

The Perfect Storm at peak was completely non-tropical....a lot of inaccurate mythology about it.....There was some intereaction with a decaying tropical system early on, and a tropical system formed in the middle of the Perfect storm after it had done its damage and was weakening.
You're not going to get that much energy for a non-trop system in July. Perfect storm was in November.

The basic premise that I see a lot that the Perfect Storm was some sort of mutant superhybrid merger of a tropical and non-tropical system is essentially false.
A lot of the problem is the way the meteorology was presented in the Perfect Storm movie (the book is fine.).....topped off by the "Cat 5 Hurricane Grace" line...ughhh.
The influence of the remnants of Grace on the intensity of the Perfect storm was likely a lot less than has been stated. The key was the extremely high pressure to the North of the Perfect Storm that both caused an insane wind gradient, and also caused the storm to move SouthWEST, basically unheard of for a Noreaster.

You weren't being. I just read an article in today's paper about lack of manners and was having a little fun with it. In all honesty, the remnants of 97L could use some immediate help as well (though the line is currently being enhanced by some divergence as it's caught between an ULL moving toward the Pacific Coast south of the Yucatan and the High building into Louisiana.
It's all good.
