Weather Alert
Issued from the National Weather Forecasting Centre Nadi at 10:45 AM on Thursday, May 22, 2025
Hold onto your hats, folks! An east to southeast wind is currently blowing through the beautiful islands of Fiji, likely carrying with it whispers of a cloud and shower party that’s set to arrive from the north. Mark your calendars for tomorrow—this little shindig is expected to stick around until Monday, and let’s just say, it could be a wet one!
Here’s the scoop for the Fiji group until midnight tomorrow: Get ready for some cloud cover and those pesky little showers over Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri, Ra, Southern Bua, Cakaudrove, Kadavu, and those charming neighboring islands, as well as the Lau and Lomaiviti groups. We’re talking occasional showers later tomorrow that might just decide to go heavy-handed! Elsewhere, expect a sprinkle of sunshine, but keep an umbrella on standby for isolated afternoon or evening showers.
The winds will be moderately east to southeast—swaying but not too wild. Just a heads up for those who get seasick: moderate to rough seas are in the forecast too!
Now, looking ahead to Saturday: It’s looking like more of the same! Occasional showers, particularly over Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri, Ra, Southern Bua, Cakaudrove, Kadavu, and nearby smaller islands, along with Lau and Lomaiviti, may bring some isolated heavy showers. It will be mostly cloudy elsewhere with a sprinkle or two in the afternoon or evening. Prepare for cool nights as well—perfect for curling up!
Specific forecasts for your area:
– **Navua / Suva / Nausori:** Cloudy with showers; we might even see the occasional torrential downpour by tomorrow evening.
– **Sigatoka/Coral Coast:** Sunshine, with just a tease of isolated afternoon or evening showers. Get that beach towel ready, if only for a little while!
– **Nadi / Lautoka / Ba & Tavua/Rakiraki:** It’s fine most of the day, but keep an eye on the sky for those sneaky late showers.
– **Natadradave/Korovou:** Those clouds have arrived with showers! Expect them to pop up, particularly late tomorrow.
– **Yasawa/Mamanuca group:** Enjoy some fine weather except for brief showers. But will it last? Hmm, possibly not.
– **Labasa:** Keep basking in the sun with just the occasional afternoon shower crash.
– **Savusavu:** Expect cloud cover and shower visits, especially through tomorrow evening.
– **Kadavu:** Get ready for some cloudy periods and those unpredictable showers—looks like they might hang around until late tomorrow.
– **Rotuma:** Better prepare for a low-pressure trough, which means occasional showers, perhaps even a lively thunderclap or two.
So there you have it—grab your umbrellas, find your rain boots, and keep those spirits high! Remember, every cloud has a silver lining, even if it’s just a few heavy showers.
