A flash flood alert is currently active for low-lying areas and small streams across Vanua Levu, as well as the Central and Eastern divisions of Fiji. The weather office in Nadi reports that the water level at Sawani Bridge has reached 4.8 meters above the alert threshold, although it is now decreasing.
A slow-moving trough of low pressure is situated over the Fiji group, bringing cloud cover, rain, and showers throughout the region. Fortunately, conditions are expected to gradually improve, with the weather clearing from the west later today and anticipated to dissipate across the group by Friday.
While the situation is concerning, it is encouraging to note that the weather is expected to stabilize soon, and residents can take precautions to stay safe during this period of heightened alert. Clearer skies await, offering a reminder of nature’s resilience and the cycle of weather patterns.
Stay informed and alert to any updates as the situation develops.
