Weather Update
From the National Weather Forecasting Centre Nadi
As of 11:00 PM on Saturday, April 5, 2025
Forecast for Sunday across the Fiji group:
Get ready for a mix of moods in the sky! It’s partly cloudy with a sprinkle of showers teasing Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu, Naitasiri, Ra, Southern Bua, Cakaudrove, Lau, and Lomaiviti groups. The rest of you, brace yourselves for a generally fine day, with a chance of those sneaky afternoon or evening showers crashing the party.
Oh, and keep your umbrellas close—isolated afternoon or evening thunderstorms might decide to join us, bringing along some heavy rainfall. Looks like Mother Nature might just be a bit dramatic today!
Winds will be moderate to fresh from the southeast, which means it’s perfect weather for kites or possibly a breezy hair day! The seas will be moderate to rough, so keep an eye on your boats or make sure you’re not wearing your best shoes when you step on shore!
Looking ahead to Monday: Expect a fine day with just a few brief showers over those same areas mentioned earlier. The rest of Fiji should bask in the sunshine, apart from the occasional waterworks in the afternoon or evening.
Now, let’s break it down by location:
For Navua, Suva, and Nausori: Partly cloudy with those brief showers making a cameo. Don’t forget your umbrella just in case the thunderstorms decide to arrive uninvited.
For Nadi, Lautoka, and Ba: Expect clear skies, save for the possible brief show of rain. Thunderstorms might crash in to spice things up in the afternoons and evenings.
For Sigatoka and the Coral Coast: It’s looking fine with a touch of afternoon/evening showers—don’t be surprised if the thunder joins the fun!
For Tavua and Rakiraki: Fine for now, but stay vigilant for those brief showers and rambunctious thunderstorms later on.
For Yasawa and Mamanuca group: Today’s looking splendid with a few potential showers in the mix.
For Labasa: Similar to other areas—fine, with a risk of those pesky afternoon or evening showers.
For Savusavu: Partly cloudy with sporadic showers bringing variety to your day.
For Lau and Lomaiviti: Enjoy a mix of clouds with brief showers during the day.
For Kadavu: Fine weather ahead, though those brief showers may still make a debut.
For Rotuma: A trough of low pressure is giving you cloudy periods and showers, and let’s not forget the possibility of isolated thunderstorms. Hold onto your hats, it could get breezy out there!
Outlook for Monday: A lot of what we’ve seen today with some cloudy periods and showers on Rotuma.
So, in summary: Keep your sunglasses handy, your umbrellas ready, and your sense of humor intact! It’s Fiji after all—expect the unexpected!
