Tropical Depression Bonnie Redevelops Near the Outer Banks of North Carolina


Tropical Depression Bonnie is back.

The National Hurricane Center resumed advisories on Bonnie late Thursday morning, as sufficient convection near what had been the remnant surface low merited reclassification as a tropical depression.

Here's the latest from the National Hurricane Center:
  • Tropical Depression Bonnie has gained a bit of strength about 40 miles east-northeast of Hatteras, North Carolina (as of late afternoon Thursday)
  • Bonnie is moving northeast at 5-10 mph.
  • Bonnie could become a weak tropical storm Thursday night before weakening back to a depression again by late Friday
  • This system is forecast to drift slowly away from the Outer Banks of North Carolina 
  • Additional heavy rain, local flooding, rip currents and high surf near the North Carolina coast are the main threats.
