Tropical Storm Barry moved across the Florida Panhandle and Alabama causing downed trees and power lines while rainfall eased drought in southeastern Alabama. No serious injuries were reported. The storm briefly neared hurricane strength before its eye crossed the Florida coast. Rainfall, up to 6 to 8 inches in spots, helped farmers around Headland and other peanut regions. Power outages affected Gulf Power customers as crews worked to restore service. Evacuations were advised in eight Panhandle counties and Franklin County ordered island evacuations.
