Well, the 5pm forecast is out and it still calls for restrengthening. Winds are estimated at 30kts now, making Bonnie a depression. I can wait for the discussion...
Personally I think its been a depression since the 2PM advisory. I can understand the guessing when the storm is over water, but they have plenty of land based data collection points and none of them supported a TS. Highest wind speed at Big Carlos Pass (S. Ft Myers) = 22 mph/ gust to 29. Marco Island 22 mph. Tampa Bay 25 / gusts to 35. West Palm Beach gust to 26. Belle Glade gust to 29 mph.
There is pretty much nothing left of Bonnie, its just moving too fast and get blasted by shear.
