Flood warnings are also in place for low lying areas near the Rewa Bridge Station and downstream of Nausori Town, Rakiraki town, Navolau, Wailotua, Nayavu and Wainibuka.

A flood alert remains in place for Waimanu, Nabukaluka and low lying areas adjacent to the Ba catchment.

People living in low lying areas are advised to move to high ground as some people are leaving things to the last minute and are calling for assistance when the areas are already surrounded by flood waters.
