Weather Update
Good morning from the National Weather Forecasting Centre in Nadi! If you’re planning your day or plotting your escape, here’s what the skies have in store for us on this fine Thursday, May 22, 2025.
We find ourselves under the influence of an east to southeast wind flow that seems to be in no rush to exit Fiji. However, be prepared—there’s a cloud and shower party arriving from the north later tomorrow, with another pesky trough making its way from the south on Friday. It seems like our weather has a social calendar all its own!
For today, expect cloudy spells with some showers in Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri, Ra, Southern Bua, Cakaudrove, Kadavu, and the nearby isles, including Lau and Lomaiviti. On the bright side, much of the other islands will bask in mainly fine weather. So, if your umbrella is feeling lonely, today might be its time to shine—just don’t forget to always check if it’s raining on your neighbor’s patio before deciding to use it!
We’ll have moderate east to southeast winds that might pick up their pace now and then. Seas will be moderate to rough, so if you’re setting sail, try not to rock the boat too much!
Looking ahead to Friday, it seems the showers want to stick around with isolated heavy falls for the same areas, while other parts might only get a few light afternoon or evening sprinkles. It will definitely be a cool night, so maybe pull out that cozy blanket and get some hot cocoa ready!
Now, let’s break it down:
– **For Navua / Suva / Nausori**: Expect cloudy periods with showers. The outlook for Friday? You guessed it—occasional showers. So don’t forget your raincoat before stepping out.
– **For Sigatoka/Coral Coast**: Mainly fine! Just a sprinkle here and there tomorrow. Bring on the beach vibes!
– **For Nadi / Lautoka / Ba**: Mostly fine with some brief afternoon or evening showers leaping out at you. Perfect weather for avoiding the raindance!
– **For Tavua/Rakiraki**: Lovely weather all around! Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts.
– **For Natadradave/Korovou**: Cloudy with some showers today, occasional showers tomorrow. Better keep that umbrella handy!
– **For Yasawa/Mamanuca group**: Sunshine with a brief sprinkle—ideal beach escape, folks!
– **For Labasa**: Mainly fine today, possibly interrupted by showers tomorrow.
– **For Savusavu**: Cloudy periods filled with showers and some spirited guests tomorrow as well.
– **For Lau/ Lomaiviti**: Cloudy with a side of showers today, while tomorrow promises occasional showers with a few heavier ones. A good day to enjoy being indoors!
– **For Kadavu**: Similar weather to Lau, with clouds and showers wandering in.
– **For Rotuma**: We’ve got a weak trough providing cloudy periods with showers and some occasional thunderstorms. Looks like a bit of drama in the skies, so grab a window seat!
So there you have it! Whatever your plans are, just remember to bring an umbrella if you’re on the cloudy side of the island. Keep smiling, and let’s hope for more sunshine than rain!
