Weather Update from the National Weather Forecasting Centre, Nadi
Issued at 10:45 AM on Saturday, March 7, 2026
So, it turns out that a little surprise is blowing in from the east—no, not a friendly neighbor with cookies, but a trough of low pressure! This mischievous weather feature plans to stir things up particularly in the eastern parts of our lovely islands until late tomorrow. Meanwhile, our southeast winds are as moist as a sponge at a water park, keeping the whole country rather damp.
Here’s what you can expect before the clock strikes midnight tomorrow:
– The eastern isles, which include Taveuni and its tiny cousins, along with the Lau and Lomaiviti groups, are gearing up for some serious cloud cover. Make sure you’re packed up for showers and isolated thunderstorms that might throw a rain dance.
– In Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri-Ra, Southern Bua, Cakaudrove, eastern Macuata, Kadavu, and their neighbors, expect more cloudiness with some rain. Who knew we’d have such a rainy reunion?
– The rest of us might get lucky with some fine weather, though that could change by the afternoon when showers and thunderstorms decide to crash the party, particularly over Viti Levu and Vanua Levu. Don’t forget your umbrella—it might just save you from spontaneous flash flooding in low-lying areas.
– Winds will be moderate, and the seas are nothing to write home about—just moderate waves, so keep your seafaring thoughts to a minimum today.
Looking ahead to Monday: Expect more cloudy moments with showers trailing behind in Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri-Ra, the Northern Division, Lau and Lomaiviti groups, and Kadavu. Apart from some refreshing afternoon or evening showers and the occasional thunderstorm giving quite the performance, the weather looks reasonably fine elsewhere. Buckle up for rain in the usual flood-prone areas!
