Weather Movie #3: The Perfect Storm

The movie: The Perfect Storm is about a tropical hurricane that started at Bermuda in the year 1991 of October in which the hurricane came in contact with the Great Lake's cold front that basically caused a perfect storm to form that is capable of causing enormous damage and destruction to everything in its path such as causing one hundred foot tall waves. In the movie, a fishing boat crew was basically trapped in the middle of the dangerous storm and a lot of intense action occurred in that one scene where the crew tried to go into the high wave or tide but they failed and their boat got flipped over and fell into the water. The movie about the determined and fearless crew that is ready to take on anything is based on the book by Sebastian Junger. Furthermore, the fishing boat crew decided to take the waters when they received news that the fishing season has started.  Not to mention, numerous rescue efforts also occurred in the same storm and occurred nearby. In summary, I learned that being trapped in the middle of a superstorm in the ocean is extremely scary and your life will be in danger due to the extremely high tides that occur due to the high intense winds of the storm along with rain, thunder, and lightning.
