ORIGINAL POST:
Here's a look at Tropical Storm Barry's remnants this morning from ADCRP (you're looking at pressure, winds, radar and satellite).
I didn't even post any archived Buoy images today, as what's left of Barry has been a snore this morning. I couldn't even find any buoys or coastal stations gusting out of the 30's (knots). As far as I can tell, the highest wind gust from Tropical Storm Barry was 47 knots (54 mph), which I already reported yesterday, from both SKMG1 and TYBG1. Even Nantucket has only made it up to 37 mph so far this morning.
The rain is a bigger story, especially since many of the areas affected by the storm were in a severe drought. Here's yesterday morning's 24-hour precip chart from the NWS -- 6 to 8 inches of rain in Central Georgia:
This morning's 24-hour map was much less impressive, with only 3-4 inches in limited locations.
Reports from NOAA's HPC indicate the following top amounts, by state (amounts over 2 inches shown, will be updated throughout day, last update 12 PM):
Mount Vernon, GA: 8.00"
West Palm Beach, FL: 6.99"
Near Hardeeville, SC: 6.12"
Absecon, NJ: 4.50"
New York City, NY: 3.91"
Pennington Gap, VA: 3.75"
Taunton, MA: 3.19"
Burrillville, RI: 3.10"
Berlin, CT: 2.90"
Newmarket, NH: 2.75"
Saco, ME: 2.64"
New Bern, NC: 2.47"
The NWS also reported that Fort Gaines, Georgia received 20.03" (but I believe that to be a typo). Here's a map that we created last night before all the reports were in:
