This made Elisa a category two cyclone on the Australian Cyclone Intensity Scale. Later on January 10, Elisa then reached both its 1 and 10 minute peak wind speeds of 50 knots (60 mph, 95 km/h). Later that day, RSMC Nadi also upgraded the depression to a cyclone and named it as Tropical Cyclone Elisa.

At the same time, the JTWC upgraded the depression to a cyclone and designated it as Tropical Cyclone 11P. Early on January 10, RSMC Nadi started to issue tropical disturbance advisories on the tropical depression as the RSMC forecast the depression to have a high chance of intensifying in to a cyclone. Later that day RSMC Nadi forecast that the depression had a moderate to high chance of becoming a tropical cyclone within 24 hours.

However the JTWC did not issue a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert until the next day when they upgraded the depressions chances of developing into a Tropical Cyclone within 24 hours to good. ĭuring January 8, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center started to track the depression, and forecast that the depression had a fair chance of becoming a significant cyclone within the next 24 hours. As a result of this, RSMC Nadi forecast that the depression had a moderate chance of developing in to a tropical cyclone within 24 hours. RSMC Nadi noted that most of the global models were forecasting that the depression would move towards the southwest with very little intensification. When the disturbance was upgraded to a depression it was located in an environment which had low to moderate sheer. The next morning, RSMC Nadi noted that the disturbance had gained more organization and so upgraded the disturbance to a tropical depression and designated it as Tropical Depression 07F. At first, the disturbance slowly moved towards the south and was forecast not to strengthen into a tropical cyclone within the next 36 hours. Late on January 6, the Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre in Nadi, Fiji started to issue tropical disturbance summaries on an area of low pressure which was located to the west of the International Dateline, and designated it as a tropical disturbance. As Cyclone Elisa did not affect any land it caused no damage or casualties, and as a consequence was not retired by the WMO. The next day Elisa rapidly weakened in to a tropical low, with both the RSMC Nadi and the JTWC issuing their final advisories on Elisa as it dissipated. Later that day, Elisa attained its peak wind speeds of 50 knots (60 mph, 95 km/h), which made it a category two cyclone on the Australian Cyclone Intensity Scale, as well as a tropical storm on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale. Soon afterwards, RSMC Nadi named the cyclone as Elisa. On January 10 the JTWC upgraded the depression to a cyclone and assigned the number 11P to the storm. Over the next few days the depression moved westwards but did not intensify any further.

The next day they upgraded it to a tropical depression and designated it as Tropical Depression 07F. Late on January 6, RSMC Nadi designated an area of low pressure near the International dateline as a tropical disturbance. The Joint Typhoon Warning Center reported that Elisa was also the third tropical cyclone within the South Pacific Ocean as well as the eleventh cyclone in the Southern Hemisphere during the 2007-08 season. Tropical Cyclone Elisa (RSMC Nadi Designation: 07F JTWC Designation: 11P) was the seventh tropical disturbance, the sixth tropical depression, and the second tropical cyclone to form west of 160☎ within the 2007-08 South Pacific cyclone season.
