Tropical Storm Bonnie lost power crossing the southern tip of Florida and was downgraded to a depression as it moved into the Gulf of Mexico, the National Hurricane Center said.

The storm’s maximum winds were 35 miles per hour, down from 40 mph earlier in the day, according to a hurricane center bulletin released just before 5 p.m. Miami time. A storm must have winds of at least 39 mph to be considered a tropical storm.
