While it made land fall, the precip field with the max in the southwest quadrant stayed in the same SW location relative to the low center - not really characteristic of a mid-latitude cyclone. I recall from days of Atm classes long ago that tropical storms are barotropic in nature. It's amazing to see how this evolved into a mature baroclinic cyclone.
