Weather Update: Sunday, February 8, 2026
Well, well, well! It seems like we can officially toss those heavy rain alerts into the recycling bin—yes, the ones we barely paid attention to anyway. It looks like Fiji is ready to dry off and put on a sunny smile.
But hold your umbrellas! There’s still some moisture in the air courtesy of a sneaky trough of low pressure lurking just west of Viti Levu and another weak contender on the eastern side of Vanua Levu. They’re responsible for our ongoing surprise showers and the occasional rumble of thunder; think of them as the uninvited guests who don’t know when to leave.
As for the forecast until midnight tomorrow, brace yourselves for some scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms over parts of Viti Levu—think Greater Suva/Nausori, the charming backgrounds of Ra, and friends from Naitasiri to Sigatoka, making tonight’s dinner plans a little soggy. The southern region of Bua, parts of Cakaudrove during Lau and Lomaiviti group shindigs, and Kadavu and its minor island buddies might also want to check the sky for raindrops while planning their social hour.
Don’t underestimate the clouds—what looks like an innocent fluff might just rain down some localized heavy falls, potentially turning low-lying areas into temporary swimming pools. Pack a swimsuit just in case!
Expect moderate to fresh east to northeast winds, as gusty as your ambitions after that second cup of coffee. And for all you sea lovers out there, prepare for moderate to rough waters. Ahoy!
Now, let’s peek into your specific areas:
**Navua / Suva / Nausori**: Occasional showers and those spontaneous thunderstorms. Today’s high is a sizzling 32. Tomorrow? A cozy 24 at night and back up to a steamy 32 during the day.
