A strong wind warning remains in force for the coastal and land areas of the Coral Coast-Navua-Suva-Rewa-Tailevu-Rakiraki, Southern Bua, Cakaudrove and Eastern Macuata provinces, Kadavu and nearby smaller Islands, Yasawa, Lau and Lomaiviti groups.

The Nadi Weather Office says a coastal inundation warning remains in force for all the low lying coastal areas of Southern Viti Levu, from Sigatoka-Navua-Suva, Yasawa and Mamanuca groups, Kadavu and nearby smaller islands, Beqa, Vatulele, Lomaiviti, Central and Southern Lau groups.

They say a trough of low pressure with the associated cloud and rain affects the Northern and Eastern parts of the group till Saturday. Meanwhile, a high-pressure system to the far Southwest of the Fiji group generates and directs fresh to strong southeast winds over the country.

Isolated thunderstorms with heavy falls are expected especially over the Northern division.
