Weather Update
Brought to you by the National Weather Forecasting Centre Nadi, 10:45 AM on Wednesday, December 10, 2025
Hold onto your umbrellas, folks! A Heavy Rain Alert is still giving a big wave to the Northern Division and Northern Lau Group and is now waving hello to Eastern Viti Levu, Lomaiviti, the rest of the Lau Group, and Yasawa Group. If you thought it was just a sprinkle, think again!
The weather drama is being caused by a low-pressure trough that’s decided to take a leisurely stroll down south, bringing along its cloud buddies and relentless showers. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself taking an unexpected shower tonight!
Here’s the forecast for the Fiji group through midnight tomorrow:
– The Northern Division, Lau, and Lomaiviti are in for occasional showers that will soon crank up to rain—what a twist!
– Eastern Viti Levu (that’s Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri-Ra for those of you playing at home) and the Yasawa group are also getting the cloudy treatment, with showers stepping up their game to frequent rain from tonight.
– Expect a few heavy downpours and maybe some thunderbolts for that extra drama!
– Further afield, you might catch some afternoon or evening showers and potential thunderstorms—when it rains, it pours (and it rumbles)!
– Beware of possible flash flooding in low-lying areas—this weather is not just a light drizzle, it comes with a side of flair!
Moderate east to northeasterly winds will keep things breezy, and as for the seas? You guessed it: moderate to rough. Please don’t attempt to surf unless you’re a pro—you do not want to end up like a wayward piece of driftwood!
The outlook for Friday is just slightly less exciting: occasional rain and a few thunderstorms. It’s like the weather got a sequel lined up, but still no happily ever after for those who hate rain.
Now, let’s break it down for some local hotspots:
**Navua / Suva / Nausori**: Expect cloudy periods with a dash of showers. Those showers? They’ll become frequent and transition into rain later tonight. Today’s maximum is a steamy 30°C, dropping to a minimum of 22°C tomorrow—perfect weather for diving under the covers!
**Natadradave/Korovou**: Same story here—cloudy with showers that get a bit too cozy and decide to stay longer tonight. Max: 30°C, Min: 22°C tomorrow.
**Sigatoka/Coral Coast**: You might encounter a mix of cloudy skies along Coral Coast while enjoying sunny spells in Sigatoka—just keep an umbrella handy because, well, ‘cloudy periods’ usually means ‘rain’s just around the corner.’ Max: 31°C today.
**Nadi / Lautoka / Ba**: Partly cloudy and potential showers are in the mix. Max: 31°C today, Min: 22°C tomorrow.
**Tavua/Rakiraki**: Expect some cloudy periods and showers, same drill for tonight. Max: 31°C today.
**Yasawa/Mamanuca**: Showers are in the chat—frequent and possibly thunderstormy for the Yasawa group, a bit of a mixed bag for the Mamanuca group today. Good luck dodging raindrops!
**Labasa, Savusavu, and Nabouwalu**: Occasional showers are expected, with showers increasing to rain tonight. Max: 31°C for Labasa and Nabouwalu, and a tad bit cooler at 30°C for Savusavu.
**Taveuni and Kadavu**: Don’t forget your umbrellas; occasional showers are on the agenda! Taveuni reaching a maximum of 30°C today, while Kadavu peaks at 31°C.
**Rotuma**: Rotuma is feeling breezy with a chance of heavy showers and maybe some thunderstorms—the perfect excuse to stay in and sip hot chocolate. Today’s max: 30°C.
So, whether you’re a fan of rainy romance or prefer clear skies, make sure you’re prepared for whatever this weather throws your way! Stay dry and keep those rubber boots handy!
