Weather Alert: Mother Nature is in a mood, and she’s ready to shower us with her affections… quite literally! The National Weather Forecasting Centre in Nadi has issued a heavy rain alert for the Northern Division and Northern Lau Group, and it seems that the Eastern Viti Levu, Lomaiviti, the rest of the Lau Group, and Yasawa Group have also earned themselves a ticket to this wet extravaganza.
A pesky trough of low pressure is lounging over the northeastern parts of Fiji, cozying up with clouds, showers, and rain. Looks like it’s sticking around for a few days, so find your favorite rain dance and get ready!
Let’s dive into the forecast for the Fiji group until midnight tomorrow: Expect intermittent showers over the Northern Division, Lau, and Lomaiviti groups, which will soon ramp up to full-blown rain starting tonight.
Eastern Viti Levu and the Yasawa group can anticipate cloudy periods mixed with showers that are increasing to rain. Keep those umbrellas handy, as isolated heavy showers and the occasional thunderstorm join the party. If you’re elsewhere, expect partly cloudy skies with afternoon or evening showers – just enough to remind you that leaving the house without an umbrella might ruin your day.
There’s a chance that persistent heavy falls could lead to flash flooding in low-lying areas, so let’s save the outdoor adventures until further notice. Expect moderate east to northeasterly winds that might give you a gentle nudge, and seas that are moderate to rough — perfect for those willing to brave the elements!
Looking ahead to Friday: The rain will make a guest appearance again, accompanied by a few cheeky thunderstorms. Dress accordingly — think raincoat couture!
