Tropical Storm Barry was a small and relatively weak tropical cyclone which caused significant impacts in the Mexican states of Veracruz and Tamaulipas, moderate impacts in Texas and Louisiana, and minor impacts in the Central United States. Barry was the first tropical storm and second named storm of the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season. The system developed from a broad area of low pressure over the Yucatán Peninsula and western Caribbean Sea which was first mentioned by the United States' National Hurricane Center (NHC) on May 31.^[1] The disturbance gradually organized as it tracked slowly into the southern Bay of Campeche, where it developed into a tropical depression on June 3. The developing system was upgraded to a tropical storm the following day. Barry quickly reached its initial peak intensity prior to making landfall just north of Tampico, Mexico, on June 4. At landfall, one-minute sustained winds were at 45 mph (75 km/h), with a central barometric pressure of 1004 hPa (mbar; 29.65 inHg). After making landfall, Barry tracked northwards along the coast of Tamaulipas. Despite the center being over land, gale-force winds persisted in the eastern semicircle because a large portion of the circulation remained offshore. The system tracked back offshore into the Gulf of Mexico on June 6, located just south of Texas. Barry re-intensified to a peak of 50 mph (85 km/h) before making landfall just east of the Louisiana-Texas state border on June 7. The system weakened to a tropical depression shortly after landfall, while located over western Mississippi. Barry then tracked quickly northwards into the Central United States while maintaining a high sustained wind speed for a tropical depression over land. and dissipated into a low-pressure area after passing into Louisiana on June 6. The system became quasi-stationary over southern Missouri on June 8, and finally dissipated the following day.
