The weather activity has picked up and anticipated to further enhance from tomorrow as a trough of low pressure with associated cloud and showers is expected to affect the Group from the weekend.
Acting Director of Meteorology Viliame Vereivalu says showers are anticipated to become frequent and heavy over most places from tomorrow.
A strong wind warning remains in force for Vatu‑I‑Ra and Kadavu passages.
Meanwhile, a low pressure system lies slow moving near Solomon Islands and this low pressure system is anticipated to intensify further into a depression in the next few days as it moves southeast towards the Group.
Vereivalu says it is expected to affect Fiji and Rotuma from Monday.
He says as the system moves closer to the Group, it is expected to bring rain, heavy at times and moderate to fresh southeast winds over lands areas from Sunday.
People can expect strong winds with speeds of 45 to 55 km/hr from Monday which is expected to enhance to gale force winds, with speeds of 60‑75 km/hr gusting to 100km/hr from Tuesday.
Winds can break tree branches and uproot shallow rooted trees as it picks up speed.
There is a high risk of flash flooding and flooding of low lying areas from Monday.
People living in flood prone and landslide areas are requested to remain alert in the next few days as severe weather conditions are predicted in the coming days.
