"NOAA claims the winds are 85 MPH, but none of the Weather Underground stations in the area report higher than 33 MPH winds. By definition, this is not a hurricane and is just barely a tropical storm."

Maximum sustained winds are 85MPH, which are the winds in the core of the storm. Everywhere else is going to get tropical storm wind. They are probably away from the core.
