The weather office has lifted the heavy rain alert that previously affected the Yasawa, Mamanuca, Viti Levu, Kadavu, and nearby smaller islands. According to the Fiji Meteorological Service, a slow-moving low pressure system continues to linger over the region, bringing cloud coverage and showers that are expected to persist for several days.
Residents should remain cautious, as localized heavy rainfall could lead to flash flooding in low-lying areas. It’s important to stay informed and prepared during this transitional period.
This cancellation of the heavy rain alert brings some relief to the communities in the affected regions, offering them the opportunity to assess conditions and recover from any impact caused by previous weather events. While the low pressure system remains, there is hope that the situation will stabilize soon, allowing residents to resume their regular activities safely.
