Predict the Date: First Bonafide Nor'Easter of the Season

This was a surface map I found from the approx. timeframe -

I think that upper Low and surface Low may have merged just off the SC/GA coast, moved a bit NE, and then sat there flooding the heck out of SC (am guessing it became a cutoff Low).  And as Joaquin ended up being pulled out to sea, I don't think that Low ever moved any farther north before finally drifting away from the coast later in the week...

If this was the 1700s or even the 1800s, it probably would've been considered a nor'easter since back then, a nor'easter was just defined as a period of strong northeast winds, clouds, and rain, with associated ocean effects (flooding/erosion).

 

Today, with modern weather analysis, it wouldn't be considered one.

Hurricane = nor'easter?

Am I alone here (might be) to say that the nor'easter search continues?

If so then kudos to iceman...

 

There was no hurricane that impacted the coast....I assumed there was an area of low pressure associated with the system.  If not, then I guess it is still open.
