Weather Update: April 3, 2025
Hello, fellow weather watchers! Grab your umbrellas, raincoats, and maybe a rubber duck or two—this weather forecast is all about the wet and wild!
We’ve got a HEAVY RAIN WARNING straight from the National Weather Forecasting Centre for the interior, western, and northern half of Viti Levu. If you’re in places from Momi-Nadi to Ba/Tavua and the interior parts of Ba/Nadroga/Navosa (and of course, Vanua Levu), prepare for a wet welcome. Make sure to check the details at the provided corner of the internet!
For those enjoying the eastern half of Viti Levu, which includes regions like Serua/Namosi through Navua to Nausori, Tailevu, Naitasiri, and Ra, you’re also under a HEAVY RAIN ALERT. Yes, there’s plenty of water waiting to drench you!
What’s happening? A lazy trough of low pressure has decided to hang around Fiji, bringing clouds and rain. It seems to be moving at a snail’s pace to the north, and it plans to stick around until tomorrow as well. So, if you see someone building an ark, don’t be surprised.
Here’s the forecast up until midnight tomorrow for the entire Fiji group: Expect occasional rain, heavy at times, and a few thunderclaps that might surprise you. The Eastern Half of Viti Levu continues to dance in raindrops, while the western parts can expect some partly cloudy weather with occasional showers.
As we head to Saturday, we’ll see a shift: cloudy periods with some showers will make their appearance, but there’s still a chance for a sprinkle or two in the afternoon or evening. Kind of like that annoying friend who just won’t leave the party!
For specific areas:
– **Navua/Suva/Nausori**: Looks like rain is your best friend, heavy at times with some thunderous applause too. Saturday brings a promise of clouds and showers.
– **Nadi/Lautoka/Ba**: Cloudy periods where showers and thunderstorms are like unexpected guests. Saturday’s forecast shifts to mostly fine weather, apart from that sneaky brief shower in the afternoon.
– **Sigatoka/Coral Coast**: You too are in for some cloudy periods and maybe an impromptu rain dance with thunderstorms expected. Saturday might just bless you with clearer skies, apart from a slight chance of showers.
– **Tavua/Rakiraki**: Enjoy those occasional heavy rain showers! Keep your galoshes handy. Saturday promises a fine outlook, unless the rain wants one last hurrah.
– **Yasawa/Mamanuca group**: Cloudy and ready for brief showers; but don’t worry, Saturday looks to be more promising with the occasional passing shower.
– **Labasa and Savusavu**: Rain, rain, go away! Occasional heavy downpours with thunderstorms peace out by Saturday for some slightly better weather, but don’t forget to stay prepared.
– **Lau/Lomaiviti**: Expect rain to shower down upon you with a chance of thunderstorms, but hang in there—clearer skies for Saturday might just do the trick.
– **Kadavu**: Stay partly cloudy with showers likely. Don’t be shocked if a thunderstorm drops by.
– **Rotuma**: The easterly winds are saying hello, but cloudiness and the potential for showers will be the main entertainment!
So, folks, it looks like we’ll be swimming in rain puddles for the next little while! Keep your spirits high even if the skies are low, and remember—this too shall pass. Stay dry out there!
