Tracking The Tropics: Danny Weakens To A Tropical Depression

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Danny has weakened into a tropical depression, though heavy rains continue over portions of Georgia and South Carolina.

At 10:30 p.m. Monday, Danny was located 50 miles west-northwest of Beaufort, South Carolina.

The depression is moving toward the west-northwest near 15 mph and this general motion is expected to continue during the next day or so.

On the forecast track, Danny will move further inland across east-central and northern Georgia Monday night and Tuesday morning.

Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph with higher gusts.

Continued weakening is forecast, and Danny is expected to dissipate on Tuesday.

There will not be any impacts from this system to South Florida.

There is also a tropical wave moving across the central Atlantic which has a low chance of development as it moves west-northwestward at 20 miles per hour. It is expected to be near the Lesser Antilles by Wednesday and it's too early to tell what, if any, impact it could have on South Florida.
