In one of the biggest underdog stories of the year, and in an upset that defies forecasts and models, Bonnie has been resurrected, and is a Tropical Depression once more.
She died shortly after making landfall on Sunday in South Carolina, but her circulation has remained in tact, and she is now over the warm Atlantic waters, producing strong convection on the western periphery of her circulation.
They said it couldn’t and wouldn’t be done. They said she’d just dissipate. They said that she was disorganized, lacking convection, even naked without convection over her low pressure center. Well, haters better keep on hating. She is back; just look at her now.
She is new and improved, having much better structure than she did before. They said she wouldn’t be anything, and now she is back! What a storm. Is a 30 for 30 up next? Comeback of the century? Better than the Warriors comeback from down 3-1 in the Western Conference Finals? We shall see.
Better comeback story?
