Tropical Depression Ingrid is heading out on a more northern path in the Atlantic. What was once a Tropical Storm is once again Tropical Depression. The winds of change continues in the Atlantic. The National Hurricane expect the storm to continue to weaken, which would be great.

Tropical Depression Ingrid is traveling west northwest at 10 mph. Maximum sustained winds are 35 mph.

Tropical Storm Ingrid is on a northwest track through the Atlantic Ocean. Tropical Storm Ingrid was upgraded from Tropical Depression # 8 and is expected to downgrade to a Tropical Depression later this week. Forecasters do expect Ingrid to intensify slightly during the next 24 hours. But as you know a forecast are just projections and nothing really is set in stone. Not many thought that Hurricane Humberto would have strengthened so quickly into hurricane over night, but it most certainly did.

Right now the Tropical Storm Ingrid is too far away for us to know if it will be a threat to the Florida or the rest of the United States.
