A heavy rain warning has been issued for the Western and Northern regions of Viti Levu, affecting areas from Momi in Nadi to Rakiraki, as well as the interiors of Ba, Ra, Nadroga/Navosa, Serua/Namosi, Naitasiri, and Tailevu provinces, along with Vanua Levu, Yasawa, and the Mamanuca islands.
According to the Fiji Meteorological Service, a slow-moving trough of low pressure is currently positioned to the far Northwest of the nation, and it is anticipated to drift southward, bringing rain to the Northwestern regions starting later today.
Residents in the affected areas should prepare for showers that will intensify into frequent and heavy rainfall later in the day. There is also the possibility of isolated thunderstorms accompanied by significant downpours.
As the community braces for this weather pattern, it serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and preparedness during rainy seasons to ensure safety and minimize disruption.
With the arrival of much-needed rain, this could also provide relief for local agriculture, promoting growth for crops and replenishing water sources. Residents can look forward to the potential benefits on the horizon, while staying informed and prepared for immediate weather challenges.
