Unfortunately for today, the atmospheric sounding over Fiji has been corrupted. This makes accurate temperature forecasts more difficult.

However, since Fiji is an island nation, most all of the local weather is dominated by the ocean. By looking at global sea surface temperatures, it can be seen that the temperatures will be quite similar to yesterday: around 25˚C (77˚F).

Current colorized infrared radar shows similar, though less intense conditions as compared to yesterday.

Expect rainfall and cloud cover.

This is reinforced by the current rainfall radar shown below. (Click the image to see the loop).

Rain is scattered across most all of the islands.

The local weather map shows that Fiji has been blanketed by the storm/cloud system that exists to the north, as the low pressure system from yesterday moves southward.
