Fiji Weather Forecast: Rain and Heavy Showers Expected with Cooler Nights Ahead

Weather Update

So, here’s the scoop straight from the National Weather Forecasting Centre in Nadi, hot off the press (well, hot-ish, it is a bit rainy out there). Grab your umbrellas, folks, because a nifty little trough of low pressure has decided to make itself at home over the eastern parts of Fiji. This means we can expect some clouds, a sprinkle of showers, and quite possibly a downpour that might have you questioning your decision to wear white today.

Forecast until midnight tomorrow for the Fiji group:
Expect occasional rain and maybe even a heavy shower or two dancing around Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri-Ra, and those picturesque Lau and Lomaiviti groups, along with Kadavu and her smaller island pals. Be prepared for localized heavy downpours—it could be more than just a splash in the puddles! If you’re out in those low-lying areas, keep an eye on things; you might be in for a surprise flash flood. But no worries! The rain should lighten up to mere showers by tomorrow.

For Southern Bua, Cakaudrove, Taveuni, and some of their nearby island buddies, expect occasional showers too. But elsewhere? You’re in luck—it’s mostly sunny with the chance of some isolated afternoon or evening splashes. And let’s not forget to mention, it’s cool at night, so don’t leave your blankets behind!

Expect moderate to fresh southeast winds—enough to give your hair that just-got-out-of-a-wind-tunnel look—along with moderate to rough seas.

Looking ahead to Saturday: Similar but slightly different, like a reboot of your favorite show; showers over the usual suspects and fine weather elsewhere with just a hint of afternoon or evening drizzle. Remember, it’ll be cool at night—sweater weather, anyone?

Now, breaking it down by area:

For Navua/Suva/Nausori: Expect some rain with potential isolated heavy falls. Max temp: 27°C. Tomorrow’s forecast: Min: 22°C, Max: 27°C. Saturday: More showers expected, but nothing we can’t handle.

For Nadi/Lautoka/Ba: Looking fine and dandy, apart from a possible cheeky afternoon shower. Max temp: 31°C. Tomorrow: Min: 21°C, Max: 31°C. On Saturday, it stays mostly sunny.

Coral Coast/Sigatoka, Tavua/Rakiraki, Yasawa/Mamanuca group: Are we sensing a pattern yet? Mostly fine with a sprinkle of isolated showers in the mix. Temp high: 30-31°C, depending on your exact location. Cool nights mean you might want to curl up with a hot chocolate!

Finally, for the lovely folks of Rotuma: Today, it’s mostly fine with brief showers, but tomorrow might bring a few more drizzles. Max temp: 31°C. Don’t forget to keep your sunhat handy!

Stay dry, stay cool, and remember: rain is just the sky having a little fun!
