Ladies and gentlemen, gather around! It appears Mother Nature has thrown a bit of a tantrum. A stubborn trough of low pressure has settled over our beautiful Fiji islands, unleashing clouds and showers that are likely to stick around like that one friend who overstays their welcome. Fear not, as the moist easterly winds are on duty to keep things interesting, and by interesting, we mean slightly damp!
Now, let’s peek into the forecast for the next 24 hours across the fabulous Fiji group: Expect frequent showers with a chance of those pesky heavy falls and perhaps a thunderstorm or two. Vanua Levu, Taveuni, and parts of eastern Viti Levu (hey there, Serua-Namosi and Suva-Nausori) are in for a royal shower party! Meanwhile, Lau and Lomaiviti groups may also get in on the action.
As for the rest of you, expect some cloudy moments with afternoon or evening showers and perhaps a friendly clap of thunder, just to keep you on your toes. With all this moisture in the air, watch out for isolated heavy falls that could lead to some flash flooding in those low-lying areas—definitely not ideal for your favorite flip-flops.
Winds will be moderate to fresh and gusty at times, just enough to blow your hat away if you’re not careful. And if you’re planning a day out on the water, be prepared for moderate to rough seas—definitely not the best time to go fishing unless you enjoy swimming with the fish!
Looking ahead to Wednesday, the outlook doesn’t look too bleak. Eastern Viti Levu and our lovely Lau and Lomaiviti groups will still see some cloudy moments and showers, but hey, that just gives you an excuse to stay in your cozy pajamas a little longer, right?
