What's left of Tropical Storm Barry hits land today

For today, what you see is what you'll get.

Unless you are on the coast, or out at sea. Then, the National Weather Service is advising you to beware of high winds and surf.

The remnants of Tropical Storm Barry are expected to roil the coast for another day.

The Weather Service has posted a gale warning and a high-surf advisory for coastal and off-shore Rhode Island waters through tomorrow night.

The surf could run 7 to 11 feet with winds in coastal waters approaching 40 mph.

Inland, the Weather Service expects heavy rain today with a chance of thunder storms tomorrow.

Wednesday will be sunny with a high of 71.

CORRECTION: An earlier version of this post incorrectly described Barry as a hurricane.

Barry was never upgraded past a tropical storm this season.

Gee, I live in Florida and don't remember getting hit by a hurricane...
I think Tropical Storm Barry is the correct term. Let's not incite panic fellas...
