Weather Update from the National Weather Forecasting Centre Nadi
Good morning, everyone! It’s a rainy day in paradise and if you happen to be out and about, make sure to bring your sense of adventure— and possibly a boat!
The Fiji Group is currently under a heavy rain alert, and no, this isn’t a drill. An active trough of low pressure has decided to hang out and throw a rain party, complete with occasional thunder as the DJ. Expect occasional rain throughout the day, with some emotional heavy rainfall and a few thunderstorms crashing the party.
For today, brace yourself for moderate to fresh north to northwest winds, and seas that are feeling a bit moody— they will be moderate to rough, which sounds like proper weather for a pirate!
As we cast our eyes forward to Thursday, prepare for more of the same, but there’s a glimmer of hope as the rain is expected to ease up from the west later in the day. However, those prone to flash flooding, remember, Mother Nature is quite the artist, and her heavy downpours could paint some unseen water features in low-lying areas!
