Attention, weather watchers! It’s your favorite time of the week again—time for the weather forecast that plays hard to get!
Here’s the scoop straight from the National Weather Forecasting Centre in Nadi: As of 10:45 am on Wednesday, February 26, 2025, we’re dealing with a bit of a blow from Tropical Cyclone Seru, who seems to be taking the scenic route southeast of Fiji at a charming Category 2 intensity. It’s like that friend who takes forever to leave but shows up with snacks!
For our friends in Yasawa, Lau, Lomaiviti, Kadavu, and the neighboring small islands, a strong wind warning is in effect. Hold onto your hats, because those winds are strutting their stuff at speeds of up to 55 km/h and can whip up some gusts faster than you can say “hold my drink!”
Now, about that rain: it’s not just a light sprinkle but a heavy rain warning for the entire Fiji group! Clouds are having a reunion, and showers are gearing up to crash the party. Expect those showers to sneak in during the afternoon and evening, possibly turning into an unwelcome downpour—like that guest who takes the last slice of pizza!
Tonight’s weather: We can expect some cloudy periods and scattered showers, especially over the Western and Northern Divisions. Heavy rain might even decide to join the mix (surprise!). If you’re in Navua, Suva, Nausori, or anywhere, really, be prepared for some thunderstorm drama.
Skipping ahead to Friday, it looks like rain will become the life of the party—expect occasional downpours and a few flashes of lightning to keep things exciting!
Here’s what’s in store around the islands:
For Navua, Suva, and Nausori: Expect the usual cloudy behavior, with those showers crashing in for a visit. They’ll be sticking around more than your relatives on holidays.
For our pals in Nadi, Lautoka, and Ba: More clouds and showers are on the way, preparing to take the stage tomorrow with frequency!
In the Coral Coast and Sigatoka: Clouds are playing hard to get, and those showers will soon become frequent rain. Don’t forget your umbrellas; they might just come in handy.
Tavua and Rakiraki: Cloudy periods with the occasional heavy shower, and thunder could throw in a surprise!
Oh, Yasawa/Mamanuca group: Strong winds and showers are set to tango tomorrow, with the rain intensifying as the week continues.
Labasa and Savusavu, you’re not off the hook! Get ready for the rain to ramp up its game!
Lau/Lomaiviti: Hold onto your hats (again!) for fresh breezes and a rainy outcome.
And for the island of Rotuma: It’s all about those moderate northerly winds and mostly cloudy vibes.
So, gear up for a wet and windy Wednesday, and remember, when life hands you rain, dance in it (after making sure you’re wearing something waterproof)!
