Weather Watch – Your Forecast with a Twist!
Issued at 10:50 AM on Tuesday, November 25, 2025, from the National Weather Forecasting Centre in Nadi, this isn’t your average weather report – it’s a rollercoaster ride through wind, rain, and a sprinkle of humor!
First off, we’re rolling out the “Strong Wind Warning” for some select land areas: Macuata, Northern Bua, Cikobia, Taveuni, Lau, and the Lomaiviti group. It’s the kind of wind that might just give your hat a head start on the road. So, hang onto your sunglasses!
Next, let’s talk about the rain. Yes, we’re still rolling with the “Heavy Rain Warning” for the northern and eastern parts of our charming Fiji. Think of it as nature’s shower setting – occasionally heavy and very refreshing!
Today, brace yourself for those strong northwesterly winds, hitting speeds up to 45 km/hr. Think of it as nature’s way of telling you: “Don’t even think about making a bad hair day escape!” Wind speeds will ease up later, just like your favorite uncle after a few too many party snacks.
The forecast until midnight tomorrow calls for downpours and a sprinkle of thunderstorms to keep things exciting. The Northern Division, Taveuni, Lau, and Lomaiviti may want to consider building an ark, especially if you reside in low-lying areas prone to flash flooding. The weather will also throw in some cloudy periods with showers over Sigatoka-Korolevu, Serua-Namosi, and Navua-Suva-Nausori – it’s a festive shower party!
But fear not! If you’re outside of our affected regions, expect fine conditions with only the merest hint of afternoon or evening showers. Viti Levu can expect a few afternoon thunderstorms crashing the party too – just in case anyone thought they were done with surprises!
Looking ahead to tomorrow, the sky will serve up more rain (heavy at times) and a few thunderstorms – a true thunderous welcome back to rainy weather! Don’t forget, localised heavy falls might just lead to flash flooding in those low-lying zones.
As for the outlook for Thursday, fear not! The rain will ease to mere showers, and you might just get that outdoor lunch you’ve been dreaming about!
