September 10, 20179 yr A tornado warning for southeastern Broward and northeastern Miami-Dade counties expired at 8:15 p.m. Saturday, after a series of thunderstorms and tornado sightings led the National Weather Service to urge residents to take cover. The thunderstorm that prompted the warning became too weak to produce tornadoes, the weather service said. But the service said it had confirmed a “large and dangerous tornado” that swept west through central Broward County toward the Everglades. But a tornado watch, which means the conditions exists to produce tornadoes, will continue for southeastern Florida until midnight, the National Weather Service said. At 7:40 p.m. a tornado was confirmed at Interstate 75 and U.S. 27 near Alligator Alley, moving west at 35 mph, the National Weather Service said. The tornado was located earlier over central Broward. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/weather/hurricane/fl-reg-hurricane-irma-saturday-20170909-story.html
