A heavy rain warning is currently in effect for most regions of Viti Levu, as announced by the Nadi weather center. This weather alert is attributed to a trough of low pressure situated within a shallow low-pressure system, which is located just southwest of Kadavu.
The trough and associated low-pressure system are anticipated to shift westward over Viti Levu later today and will settle to the west of the islands by tomorrow. Residents should prepare for the likelihood of afternoon thunderstorms, which may bring heavy rainfall and the potential for flash flooding in the affected areas in the coming hours.
Authorities advise the public to avoid flooded creeks and drains, and to refrain from walking, cycling, or driving through flood waters to ensure safety.
As the weather evolves, it is crucial for the community to stay informed and heed warnings to mitigate risks associated with flooding and adverse weather conditions.
