NOAA Daily Weather Maps (US Department of Commerce 1987) provided tracking information. 1-2 January 1987 (Figure 27) 65. This storm formed over the Gulf of Mexico and early on 1 January was located off the Georgia coast. It increased in intensity and speed, rapidly moved up the coast, and by 2 January was located off New England. On 1 January at 2000 EST, the atmospheric pressure dropped to 993 mb. Maximum onshore winds exceeded 12 m/sec (ENE), and maximum Hm0 (Gage 141) of m (period = sec) was recorded at 1900 EST also on 1 Figure 27. Data for 1-2 January 1987 storm 57.
