Weather Update
Attention, residents and visitors! The weather wizards at the National Weather Forecasting Centre have conjured up a colorful forecast for us today. A breezy northeasterly wind is blowing across the group, making it an ideal day for kite flying—if those kites aren’t made of paper!
However, just as you’re about to step out, a mischievous trough of low pressure is sneaking up from the west, dragging along a cloud cover filled with showers and rain. Yes, it seems the drama will unfold from today until tomorrow, so grab your umbrellas, folks; it’s about to rain cats and dogs.
Here’s what you can expect for the Fiji group:
Today, expect showers to shower love (well, rain) upon Serua-Namosi, Navua-Suva-Nausori, Tailevu-Naitasiri-Ra, Rakiraki, Kadavu, and the neighboring islands. The clouds are throwing a party, and they’ve invited everyone! Occasional rain and a few isolated thunderstorms are gearing up to make their grand entrance from the west later in the day. Don’t be surprised if they crash the party with isolated heavy falls, leading to a game of ‘dodge the puddle’ in low-lying areas!
Rain will gradually ease from the west by tomorrow’s end, while moderate northeasterly winds come and go like that one friend who’s never on time to the party.
Thursday’s forecast is looking a bit more civilized—cloudy periods and some showers for Sigatoka-Korolevu, Serua-Namosi, and the usual suspects, but a good chance to flaunt that sunblock elsewhere—enjoy the mainly fine weather before the night brings a cool breeze.
