The 1991 Atlantic hurricane season was the first season since 1984 in which no hurricanes developed from tropical waves, which are the source for most North Atlantic tropical cyclones. The most significant storm of the season was Hurricane Bob (satellite image shown), which at the time was among the ten costliest United States hurricanes. After brushing the Outer Banks of North Carolina and Long Island in New York, the hurricane made landfall on Rhode Island. It caused $1.5 billion in damage, mostly in Massachusetts, and 17 fatalities. The strongest hurricane of the season was Claudette, with reported peak winds of 135 mph (215 km/h) near Bermuda. Hurricane Grace, the final named storm of the season, contributed to the development of a powerful nor'easter known as the Perfect Storm that caused $200 million in damage and 13 deaths from Puerto Rico to Canada. The nor'easter later transitioned into a hurricane over the Gulf Stream, finally dissipating over Nova Scotia on November 2.
