Examine and compare the wind speed and pressure data collected from selected WeatherSTEM stations in Alabama and Georgia, with those located closer to the coast.

Based on the information, how would you compare the impacts from wind would have been observed? Which station reported the highest wind gust and lowest pressure in each state? Can you determine the classification of the storm based on the observed winds? Why or why not?
