Meanwhile, Navua recorded 13.8 degrees Celsius on 5th July, the lowest minimum temperature since observations began there in 2010.The Weather Office says these exceptionally low temperatures occurred during Fiji's cool and dry season, from June to August, when persistent southeast trade winds, high-pressure systems and occasional outbreaks of cool air from higher latitudes combine to produce cooler nights, lower humidity and generally drier weather across the country.The Fiji Meteorological Service says it will continue to closely monitor weather conditions and provide updates as required.
