   Areas affected...northern...western...and central portions of the
   Florida Peninsula

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 340...

   Valid 070942Z - 071145Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 340 continues.

   SUMMARY...Risk for brief tornadoes continues.

   DISCUSSION...Little change with respect to tornado risk is evident
   across Florida at this time, as the center of Elsa (now roughly 70
   miles south-southwest of Cross City) continues drifting slowly
   northward.

   Brief/rather weak, transient circulations continue to be observed in
   WSR-88D storm-relative velocity data, largely within the primary
   convective band arcing from near Fort Myers, to north-northeast to
   the Orlando area, and then north-northwest through Gainesville.

   Over the past 1-2 hours, a few transient circulations have been
   observed from the Ocala to the Gainesville vicinity, near and just
   outside of the northern fringe of WW 340.  With time, as the center
   of Elsa continues shifting northward, areas north and northwest of
   the current watch will be monitored for any possible increase in
   tornado potential.
