Weather Update: A Breezy Affair
Greetings, weather watchers! If you’re in the Lau and Lomaiviti groups, Kadavu, or Taveuni, you might want to hang onto your hats—literally! A strong wind alert is in play as a weak trough of low pressure has decided to throw a party right over your area, and the gusty winds are definitely crashing the bash.
Expect some drama in the skies as we forecast occasional showers, with some coming down heavier than others—think nature’s way of providing a free shower! Thunderstorms may also join the fun, especially in Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, and Tailevu. Just a heads up: localized heavy rain can lead to flash flooding in low-lying areas, so keep an eye on those puddles!
For those outside the storm’s spotlight, enjoy some fine weather, but don’t get too comfy—afternoon or evening showers have a sneaky way of showing up uninvited. The strong winds will be joined by an enthusiastic southeast wind flow tomorrow, packing a punch that might knock over a few picnic tables.
Looking to the horizon for your weekend? It’s looking breezy with southeast winds reaching up to 45 km/h, especially if you’re living in the aforementioned island groups. As for the seas, they may get a bit rowdy, but nothing an experienced sailor can’t handle.
Here’s a quick peek at tomorrow’s forecast as your friendly neighborhood weather guru sees it:
