The Fiji Meteorological Services has announced a Heavy Rain Warning for the Yasawa and Mamanuca Group, the Northern Division, and all of Viti Levu. Additionally, a Heavy Rain Alert has been issued for the remaining parts of Fiji.
The cause of this significant rainfall is attributed to an active trough of low pressure, which is expected to bring rain across the entire country. The National Disaster Management Office (NDRMO) has also issued a warning about the potential for flash flooding and has advised motorists to exercise caution due to deteriorating road conditions.
Residents are encouraged to keep themselves updated on the situation by following alerts from the Fiji Meteorological Services and the NDRMO.
In summary, Fiji is facing a challenging weather situation, but the authorities are actively working to keep the public informed and safe. Staying updated and vigilant can significantly mitigate risks associated with heavy rainfall. It’s a reminder of the strength of community preparedness in the face of natural weather events.
