Ladies and gentlemen, gather ‘round because we’ve got some weather news that’s more exciting than watching paint dry! Tropical Cyclone Rae is making waves, and we’re not talking about the ones you’d want to surf on. So before you grab your beach towels or floaties, pay attention!
Forecast for the Fiji group until midnight: You guessed it—more details about our friend Rae. If you need a deeper dive, hop over to the RSMC Nadi Tropical Cyclone Warning Centre for all the juicy details at their webpage (but we know you love our summary, too!).
Now, let’s break it down for our lovely regions:
For the vibrant areas of Navua, Suva, and Nausori:
You might want to rethink that picnic plan because the weather says your sandwiches could get soggy. Cue Rae’s classic cloudy appearance with a few showers rolling in to spice things up.
Nadi, Lautoka, and Ba:
Batten down the hatches and avoid wearing white shoes today—they’ll just get muddy! Expect a bit of cloud cover and possibly the kind of rain that makes you question why you ever left the house.
For the picturesque Sigatoka and the Coral Coast:
Rae’s got you under a cloudy spell with showers trying to sneak in. Perfect weather for a cozy indoor coconut curry-making session!
Tavua and Rakiraki:
Looks like Cyclone Rae has decided to pay you a visit with similar prospects of cloudy skies and showers. Rain check on that garden party!
Yasawa and Mamanuca group:
Rae didn’t forget about your stunning islands! A bit of cloud and some potential showers coming your way. Time to channel your inner island raider with those raincoats.
Labasa:
Rae is still waving hello! Expect some clouds and showers, but maybe not enough to dampen your spirits. Grab your umbrella just in case!
Savusavu:
It’s cloudy and showers might just crash your outdoor plans. Is it too late to say “bring on the sunshine”?
For Lau and Lomaiviti:
Rae is lurking with the usual suspects: clouds and showers. If you see a rainbow, give Rae a wink!
Kadavu:
Just like a bad guest, Rae is overstaying their welcome. Expect the clouds and showers to continue their party.
And finally, for the rebellious souls in Rotuma:
A STRONG WIND WARNING is in effect, with winds up to 50km/hr and a rough sea making sure everything stays lively! Perfect weather to test your kite-flying skills, if you dare!
Outlook for tomorrow everywhere: More clouds, more showers—just wrapping up the surprise party Rae threw!
That’s all for today, folks! Stay dry, keep your sense of humor intact, and remember—if it rains, just dance in it!
