A tropical disturbance, designated as TD03F, is currently lingering near the Solomon Islands but remains poorly defined. According to the Fiji Meteorological Service, the situation in the region is being influenced by two additional low-pressure centers. One of these systems is located southwest of TD03F, while the second is situated just west of the Fiji Group and also southwest of TD03F.
The weather office has noted in its 5-Day TC outlook that these low-pressure systems, along with TD03F, are anticipated to consolidate into a single low-pressure system over the next few days, which may present an opportunity for further development. Nevertheless, the chances of this system intensifying into a tropical cyclone are currently assessed as low.
For Sunday, December 14, TD03F is expected to remain within the designated monitoring area, with a low likelihood of developing into a tropical cyclone. By Wednesday, the potential for tropical cyclone formation is still rated as low.
Authorities continue to watch the situation closely and encourage the public to stay informed through official weather bulletins as conditions evolve. This proactive stance aims to ensure community safety and preparedness as the meteorological situation develops.
