The Science Behind The Perfect Storm

  • Summary

  • In late October 1991, the Halloween Storm, famously depicted as "The Perfect Storm" in film and literature, struck the Atlantic coast and tragically claimed 13 lives. In this episode, we'll learn about the storm's evolution from the perspective of a high seas forecaster who tracked it in real-time 33 years ago. Joe Sienkiewicz from the National Weather Service provides insights into the unique weather conditions that converged to create this devastating storm, as well as how maritime forecasting has evolved over the past three decades. We'll also hear from WGME Meteorologist Emily Santom, who recently explored this historic event in a retrospective.
