Weather Update
Brought to you by the much-loved National Weather Forecasting Centre in Nadi, here’s your weather rundown for Monday, March 17th, 2025, at 7:30pm!
It looks like a trough of low pressure decided to hang out over the eastern parts of the country, and what does that mean? Well, it’s thought to send some clouds and showers our way, so grab an umbrella—your new best friend for the next few days!
For the forecast leading up to midnight tomorrow in Fiji:
Get ready for some occasional showers and a sprinkle of isolated thunderstorms over the Lau and Lomaiviti groups, as well as Kadavu and its smaller buddies. If you’re in the eastern part of Viti Levu [think Navua, Suva, Nausori, Tailevu, Naitasiri, and Ra] or hanging in Cakaudrove and southern Bua provinces, expect cloudy periods accompanied by a delightful mix of showers.
On the brighter side, the rest of the islands will bask in the fine weather except for some afternoon and evening showers here and there.
But hold on to your hats! Thunderstorms with hefty downpours are predicted for Viti Levu and Vanua Levu. Just a friendly reminder that these local heavy falls might create some charming little rivers in low-lying areas, so keep your floaties handy! With moderate easterly winds and seas, we’re in for an adventure!
Looking ahead to Wednesday: It’s more of the same! Occasional showers and a bit of thunder to spice things up over Lau, Lomaiviti, the eastern half of Viti Levu, Kadavu, and their little island pals. As always, fine weather will prevail elsewhere, aside from those pesky afternoon and evening showers. Thunderstorms are bound to crash the party again, so be prepared for heavy downpours, especially in the afternoon!
Now let’s break it down by region for Wednesday:
– **Navua / Suva / Nausori**: Cloudy spells with showers galore! Thunderstorms in the afternoon could bring heavy falls—best keep those raincoats close!
