They say water level at Nadi Bridge is above warning level and increasing, water level at Ba Fiji Sugar Corporation is above alert level and increasing while water level at Nadi Back Road Station was above warning level and decreasing.

Expect poor visibility on the roads, flooding of roads and settlements (formal and informal) in low lying areas and floodplains.

You can also expect significant disruption to traffic flow and transport route due to roads being flooded or closed.

The Nadi Weather Office says we can also have river and flash flooding of river catchments, leading to localised damage to infrastructure, agricultural farms and settlements near streams and riverbanks.
