Hazy skies with some brief showers generally 10 mm or less were observed in the Sigatoka region due to the clouds associated with a weak cold front on the 21st. Apart from that, fine sunny weather prevailed over the majority of the rainfall stations. Humidity levels continued to drop as we move towards the cooler and drier winter season.
The coming week is expected to be fine and mostly sunny over the west. Mild during the day and cool at night with fresh strong trade winds. Chances of some increasing clouds later in the weekend may bring some isolated light showers; otherwise there are no significant rain systems on the horizon currently.
