Nothing like that, I think - the northern part of the storm is being sheared apart at present, and it will soon become extra-tropical. The storm will be a hefty Nor'easter, it will not be coming ashore as a hurricane.
Agnes came aboard NJ-NY as a TS and stalled over NY/PA. That was all that was needed. Similar region, similar approach, and meeting another system.
Difference here is Agnes (”A”) was the very beginning of summer; this is the very end of hurricane season as it starts to get cold.
