A resident of Naicucuqu Settlement in Galoa Island in Kadavu, Frank Whippy says the heavy rain and strong winds they were experiencing have eased as they believe the eye of TC Ana is over them at the moment.

Whippy says they have been experiencing this weather since 4 o’clock this morning, and it started to ease at 5 o’clock this afternoon.

He says there have also been high waves.

You should continue to expect damaging to destructive winds if you live in Viti Levu, Northern Vanua Levu and Kadavu although the centre of Cyclone Ana has passed Viti Levu and is currently between the waters of Kadavu and Viti Levu.

If you live in Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, the winds you can expect to continue to experience tonight and tomorrow is the direct effects from the second part of Cyclone Ana.

The Nadi Weather Office says people in Kadavu can still expect heavy rain, damaging to destructive winds and flooding tonight and tomorrow.
