About 30 people are on the roof of a house in Qeleloa, Nadi as flood waters continue to rise.

About six houses are already under water in Qeleloa.

Resident Jessica Singh said two children aged 3 and 2 years are on the roof with them.

At least 100 houses are under water in Nasoso Nadi.

Resident and Justice of Peace Saten Prasad said heavy rain is continuing and the water level is rising.

Prasad said that they have now opened up the Shiv Temple Hall in Nasoso to cater for anyone who needs shelter.

Meanwhile Nadi businessman Riyaz Ali says this flood is worse than the one they experienced 2 months ago.

“This is worse than the January flood”.

This is the assessment made by Narewa villager in Nadi, Kaliova Nabulagi in regards to the current flood as 95 percent of the houses are flooded.

Nabulagi said water has entered the houses and the people affected have moved to Navatulevu church.

He said the danger is that flood waters are still raising.
