The pressure was very bizarre (NOTE: Topic title will reflect the strongest point at which a storm reached at landfall)

Alex has now dissipated over the mountains of central Mexico.  We'll see what happens with the rest of the season as the United States certainly dodged a bullet here.

Surprised the NHC was still issuing advisories even over a day after landfall. Usually they hand it over to the HPC about 12 hours or so after landfall.

It goes by when a system finally weakens to a tropical depression once it has made landfall.  It took Alex a while to weaken all the way down to that point, so NHC couldn't give hand it over to HPC right away.
