Bonnie Threatens To Form In Time To Drench US East Coast Over Memorial Day Weekend

Source: Accuweather

Tropical Depression Two has developed northeast of the Bahamas and will approach the southeastern coast of the United States with downpours, building surf and an increasing breeze during Memorial Day weekend.

The system can become a tropical storm at any time into the weekend, with the potential to become the second named storm of the season: Bonnie.

According to AccuWeather Hurricane Expert Dan Kottlowski, as the system moves away from strong winds aloft and toward warmer waters of the Gulf Stream, it should strengthen and organize.

Regardless of a tropical depression or tropical storm and the movement thereof, the approach will have an effect on coastal areas, especially from Georgia to southeastern Virginia during much of the holiday weekend and perhaps into next week.
