Good evening, weather enthusiasts! We’ve got ourselves a low-pressure system just to the west of Fiji, and it’s decided to take a little jaunt away from our lovely islands. Meanwhile, a cloud party continues to rain down on the eastern parts of the group—don’t forget your umbrellas, folks!
Forecast until midnight tomorrow for the Fiji group:
You can expect some drippy moments in the Lau and Lomaiviti group with showers sprinkling about as if the clouds are playing a prank on us. The usual suspects—Vatukoula-Rakiraki-Tailevu North, Yasawa group, Naitasiri, and other eastern provinces—will see cloudy periods and a few showers coming through.
And wait for it… isolated thunderstorms with a side of heavy rainfall are also in the mix! Just a reminder to keep an eye on the skies, because if things get too heavy, we might be looking at some spontaneous swim opportunities in low-lying areas! Moderate northeast winds will be blowing anyone’s hat off, and seas will be rockin’ with some moderate to rough waves.
Looking ahead to Wednesday:
Cloudy periods and showers will continue to stalk the Nasinu-Nausori-Korovou-Rakiraki area, along with the usual suspects of Tailevu North-Naitasiri and eastern Macuata and Cakaudrove. Expect everyone else to enjoy fine weather with only the occasional flirtatious afternoon or evening showers and thunderstorms.
