A severe rain warning has been issued for the Fiji region as an active trough of low pressure approaches from the north. The Nadi Weather Office has indicated that heavy rain and thunderstorms are anticipated, with the most intense weather expected in the northern areas, gradually affecting the rest of Fiji by the following day.
The Nadi Weather Office has also cautioned that the potential for localized heavy rainfall could result in flash flooding, particularly in low-lying zones. In addition, isolated thunderstorms are likely in the southern and inland areas of Viti Levu, including regions such as Sigatoka, interior Nadroga-Navosa, Serua-Namosi, Navua, Suva, Nausori, Naitasiri, southern Bua, and Cakaudrove during the afternoon or evening.
As the storm system develops, it serves as a reminder of the resilience of Fiji’s communities in facing weather challenges. It is crucial for residents to remain vigilant and prepared for potential disruptions while hoping for the safety and well-being of all.
