There is also a flood alert for areas adjacent to downstream of Waimanu to Nausori Town, Nabukelevu to Navua Town and Vatukacevaceva to Rakiraki Town.
The heavy rain being experienced in some areas is caused by a trough of low pressure with associated cloud and rain that remains slow moving over the eastern and northern parts of Fiji.
