Tropical Storm Barry formed quickly last Friday and made landfall on Florida’s west coast over the weekend with sustained wind speeds of 35 mph, according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC). After the storm hit land, it dropped seven inches of rain and quickly lost power, which resulted in very little other property damage.

In addition to Florida, the storm affected Georgia, South Carolina , and North Carolina. The National Weather Service also warned isolated tornadoes were possible over central Florida. The remains of Barry are tracking up the East Coast, bringing heavy rain to the region. Flood alerts were issued for parts of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts because of the rain.

Tropical Storm Barry is the second named storm of the year. Almost all meteorologists are predicting 2007 to be an active hurricane season , which got an early start last month when Subtropical Storm Andrea formed three weeks before the official start of storm season.
