Weather Alert: Moisture Overload Edition

Issued by the National Weather Forecasting Centre in Nadi at 5:30 am on March 4, 2026 – much to the delight of your umbrellas.

The heavy rain warning for the glamorous western half of Viti Levu, the Yasawa and Mamanuca groups, Cadavu, and their smaller island buddies has called it quits!

Looking ahead to Thursday: The forecast shows a trend of clouds taking over across many regions, with showers popping up like surprise guests at a dinner party—especially over Navua, Suva, and pretty much anywhere your rain dance takes you.
