Due to the heavy rainfall several roads and few bridges are closed.

This includes Naidiridiri Crossing, Sarava Settlement Access Road, Nakorovou Crossing, Wairua Crossing, Waidradra Crossing, Wailoku Flats, Nabualau Crossing, Delakado Crossing, Waisa Crossing, Sawani Bridge, Wainibuka Crossing and Savu Road.

Meanwhile, the Nadi Weather Office says a trough of low pressure lies over Fiji and is gradually moving eastwards, which is associated with clouds and showers.

They say the trough of low pressure is expected to affect the eastern parts of Fiji till later today.

They add that localised heavy falls may lead to flash flooding in low-lying and flood-prone areas.

Drivers are also urged to drive carefully along flooded areas as it can be risky.
