I'm REALLY glad you brought that up. I was about to. No, many didn't learn anything from last night. The system indeed is ONCE AGAIN refiring convection. Whatever the reason is for the current phase, it WON'T LAST. Minimal hurricane at landfall is quite possible.

Bonnie is picking up forward speed and should reduce speed shear ... at least, briefly ... we're now beginning to see what appears to be some dynamical effects beginning to take shape over Bonnie, so the bursting phases definitely look to continue ...

It's amazing that the only system that has had demonstrably vigorous circulation is being ignored while getting close to land.

In the meantime Charley, is bigger, and is getting all the press. I am just now beginning to understand the ability of humans to deny the truth of what is at hand.

But don't worry about Bonnie. She'll never be a hurricane, she's never been one.

There is some serious delusion running rampant around here. Check out the deadliest storms and find out what they have in common. Please?


And some wizard out here who wants to enhance his/her status, please answer this one question:

What percentage of tropical storms kills over 95% of those who succumb to their pwer?

The system has waned tonight, I don't deny that (just as it did last night), but to say the system is dead or is dying, that's not true. Tomorrow morning the system should strengthen. It will all depend on how much time it has for it to attain hurricane status.

To all you pessimists who are writing it off again: What is that red starting to pop in the middle? It wasn't there an hour or two ago...

Bonnie has become absolutely pathetic. Max. flight level winds on the very last pass in the NE quad were 32 kts, with a central pressure of 1010 mb. The closest convection is actually far east of the center (that blossoming convection is around 87.8W while the storm's center is at 88.5W). I doubt that any recovery can occur in light of strong upper-level winds.
