Weather Update: Brace Yourself for Liquid Sunshine!
Good morning, weather warriors! It’s 10:45 AM on this delightful Saturday, November 8, 2025. Hold onto your umbrellas, because a heavy rain warning is now in effect for the eastern half of Viti Levu and a few other festive locations! We’re talking Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, and a whole bunch of islands that might need a flotation device. For the full deets, check out the special bulletin from our friends at the National Weather Forecasting Centre.
Here’s the situation: A stubborn trough of low pressure is hanging around, bringing cloudiness, showers, and rain until the fun settles down tomorrow. And since it’s all about teamwork, expect some lovely easterly winds to join the mix.
Forecast until midnight tomorrow: There will be plenty of rain, with some heavy moments and possibly a few light shows courtesy of Mother Nature with thunderstorms zapping around! Rain will gradually fade to showers by tomorrow, so hang tight.
Now, for those living somewhere else, you can still enjoy mostly fine weather, except for those sneaky afternoon or evening showers and thunderstorms that love to crash the party. Just be ready for the occasional downpour, which might give you a surprise monsoon experience!
Heads up for localized heavy falls, which could lead to flash floods in low-lying, flood-prone areas. Keep your wellies handy!
As for the breeze, we have moderate easterly winds and seas, so no surfing the rivers with a stormy wave tonight.
Looking ahead to Monday: Expect cloudy periods spitting out some showers over various regions, while the rest of you could enjoy fine conditions, albeit with some sneaky shower guests. Temperatures? A mix, with some areas keeping it cool.
