Weather Bulletin
Well, well, well! It looks like Mother Nature is having a bit of a mood swing across the Fiji group today. Issued from the National Weather Forecasting Centre in Nadi at the crack of dawn (5:30 am) on Wednesday, January 7th, 2026, here’s the lowdown:
For our friends in Tailevu North, Naitasiri, Ra, eastern Macuata, and Cakaudrove provinces, it’s going to be cloudy with some flirtatious brief showers trying to steal the spotlight. Meanwhile, the rest of you are basking in fine weather, imperfectly marred by the chance of those pesky isolated afternoon or evening showers. And hey, don’t be surprised if the clouds get a bit dramatic with some afternoon thunderstorms — the kind that might just throw a flash flooding tantrum in the low-lying areas. So maybe keep your duck floaties handy?
Expect moderate northeast winds blowing as gently as a whisper and moderate seas that might just be welcoming you for a swim.
Now, peeking into Thursday’s forecast: more of the same song and dance, with those cloudy periods and brief showers for our pals in Tailevu North, Naitasiri, Ra, eastern Macuata, and Cakaudrove. Expect more fine weather for the rest, accompanied by the customary isolated afternoon and evening showers. And yes, those thunderstorms might just take center stage again – keep an eye out!
