I don’t remember seeing a storm classified as a hurricane that has zero convection around any side of the immediate c of c. Pretty amazing actually.

Yeah, it's kind of surreal down here with Barry. Not much rain last night. In an otherwise healthy storm, the rains should have begun yesterday afternoon with solid banding etc. At least we'll get less time with tropical storm conditions with Barry.

Yeah, that’s about right normally. It’s radar presentation currently looks like an organizing depression or minimal tropical storm.
 
What's a little unsettling to me is that Barry's CDO has yet to fully come ashore. This area is likely to have the heaviest rains and highest winds, especially in the area of convection closest to the center. I just hope Barry doesn't stall over the area.
 
I wonder if this is the culprit for the higher winds reaching the ground. The abnormally dry air aloft(for tropical cyclones) aiding it.

Not seeing anything that screams cat 1. Kinda feels like NHC just wanted the 1st out of the way.

Agree! Almost a “ pity “ naming! It’s radar and satellite presentation , doesn’t scream Hurricane
