Weather Update (A Dash of Humor)
Issued from the Weather Wizards at the National Weather Forecasting Centre Nadi at 5:30 am on Friday, February 20, 2026
Alright folks, grab your umbrellas—today’s forecast is brought to you by Mother Nature and her wacky sense of humor. A southeasterly wind is sweeping through, bringing a weak trough of low pressure that’s about as slow as a Sunday morning. Expect this weathery guest to linger around the southern and eastern parts of our beautiful islands later today.
Here’s the scoop for the Fiji group until midnight tonight:
Get ready for some cloudy antics and a few showers peppering the Coral Coast-Korolevu, Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri-Ra-Rakiraki, Kadavu, the smaller islands nearby, Southern Bua, Cakaudrove, Taveuni, Lau, and Lomaiviti groups. It’s like a surprise rain party, but fine and dandy if you hang out elsewhere—until the solitary afternoon or evening shower tries to crash your plans. And let’s not forget about the potential for isolated afternoon thunderstorms that could bring heavy downpours—so, wear your rubber boots just in case!
Moderate southeasterly winds are joining the fun, and the seas are behaving at a moderate level, so no need to fear a wild wave party today.
What’s in store for Saturday, you ask? More cloudy fun with some showers over Kadavu and the southern Lau group, while the rest of us may enjoy a few brief showers popping up here and there—think of them as the annoying guests that just won’t leave! Also, afternoon thunderstorms are keeping their social calendar open.
