The National Weather Service in Miami has issued a

central Broward County in South Florida.
* Until 730 PM EDT
* at 700 PM EDT... National Weather Service Doppler radar indicated a
severe thunderstorm capable of producing a tornado near

60 mph.
* The tornado will be near...

If you are near the path of a tornado... seek shelter in a sturdy
building on the lowest floor... away from outside walls and windows.
Get under a workbench or other piece of sturdy furniture. Use
blankets or pillows to cover your body and stay away from windows.
If you are caught outside... seek shelter in a nearby reinforced
building. As a last resort... seek shelter in a culvert... ditch or low
spot and cover your head with your hands.
Do not use your car to try to outrun a tornado. Cars are easily
tossed around by tornado winds. If you are caught in the path of a
tornado... leave the car and go to a strong building. If no safe
structure is nearby... seek shelter in a ditch or low spot and cover
your head.
