Subject: Hurricane Bonnie was a Category 3 storm that made landfall near Cape Fear/Wilmington, North Carolina on August 27, 1998. The strength of the storm was very similar to that of Hurricane Fran, which devastated the area two years ago. However, Bonnie slowed considerably in its forward movement and made a slow, sweeping arc across the coastal plain of North Carolina and the Tidewater area of Virginia. Bonnie's very slow, and at times stationary, movement increased the local flooding from rainfall, but greatly decreased the coastal flooding from storm surge
