1 FIJI METEOROLOGICAL SERVICE Private Mail Bag (NAP351) Nadi Airport, Fiji Ph: , Fax: Also online at Fiji Climate Summary July 216 ISO 91:28 certified Climate Services Issued: August 6, 216 Since : August 198* Volume 37 : Issue 7 1. IN BRIEF The month of July was considerably drier as rainfall producing systems have generally been displaced further north of the Fiji Group. However, a frontal system brought some relieving rainfall over the Western Division and northern parts of Vanua Levu towards the end of the month. The trend of dry conditions continued during the month with majority of the stations receiving below average to well below average rainfall. Fourteen out of the 26 recorded less than half of the normal July rainfall. The dryness was particularly notable over the Western Division and northern parts of Vanua Levu with extended periods of without any rainfall. Below average rainfall also extended to the Eastern Division. The past three months, that is, from May to July 216, have been considerably drier than usual across the country. During this period, rainfall ranged from 12 to 43% in the Western and Northern Divisions and generally between 53% to 84% in the Central and Eastern Divisions. Notably, 73% of the climate monitoring stations are currently in meteorological drought conditions on a 3 months timescale and 67% on 6 months timescale. Consequently, accumulated rainfall deficiencies would have started to affect shallow rooted crops, streams, creeks, wells and bore holes at majority of the places especially in the Western Division, Northern Division and small islands. The average maximum air temperatures were generally normal to above normal, with 15 out of the 21 stations recording anomalies.5 C (Table 2 & Figures 2-5). Significantly cool conditions were experienced from 18 th and 2 th, when most of the stations recorded the lowest daily minimum temperature for the month. Nadarivatu recorded 1.1 C on the 18 th, followed by Keiyasi with 11.1 C on the 2 th. A record high average maximum temperature for July was registered at Labasa Airport and Nabouwalu during the month, while a new high average minimum temperature was established at Ono-i-lau. 2. WEATHER PATTERNS July was dominated by transient troughs of low pressure, semi permanent high pressure systems and the broad southeast trade winds. For the first two days of July, a weak trough was over Fiji, causing showers over the eastern part of the country. The trough moved eastward overnight on the 2 nd as a southeast wind flow extended onto the group from the south. The southeast winds weakened on the 4 th as a trough moved onto Fiji but strengthened later on the 4 th as it slipped east of Fiji. The southeast winds prevailed till the 8 th before it weakened as the high pressure system receded and a fast moving trough approached Fiji from the southwest. The trough moved onto Fiji overnight on the 1 th causing showers over the eastern and interior parts of the larger islands. It eventually cleared the group overnight on the 11 th as a ridge of high pressure extended form the south. The ridge initially directed a south to southeasterly wind flow which prevailed till 18 th, which caused cool temperatures at night. The southeast wind flow slightly weakened overnight on the 18 th as a front moved onto the southern part of Fiji. The front eventually moved away from Fiji on the 19 th as a cool and dry southerly winds strengthened over the country. Cool southerly winds coupled with cloudless night caused night-time temperature to drop with Keiyasi recording an overnight minimum of 11.1 C on 2 th. The winds eventually turned southeasterly later on the 21 st and prevailed till the 29 th. Towards the later part of the month, the southeast winds receded as a frontal system approached Fiji from the southwest and affected the country later on the 31 st. Showers was recorded in some parts of Fiji with Viwa recording the highest of 5.2mm. Rotuma s weather was largely influenced by the South Pacific Convergence Zone and the southeast winds which produced some showers, with the highest of 13.8mm recorded on the 3 th. Overnight temperature were never lower than 23 C. *Previously known as the Fiji Islands Weather Summary and Monthly Weather Summary 1
2 3. RAINFALL The month of July was considerably drier, as rainfall producing systems have generally been displaced further north of the Fiji Group. However, a frontal system brought some relieving rainfall over the Western Division and northern parts of Vanua Levu towards the end of the month. Lautoka Mill was the driest station during the month, with 6mm of rainfall, followed by Yasawa-i-rara, Dreketi, Rarawai Mill, and Nadi Airport with 9mm, 1mm, 12mm and 13mm, respectively. In contrast, Monasavu registered the highest total monthly rainfall of 252mm, followed by Tokotoko, Udu Point and Laucala Bay with 169mm, 9mm, and 79mm, respectively. Trend of dry conditions continued in July with majority of the stations receiving below average to well below average rainfall. Out of the 26 stations, 11 received well below average rainfall, 1 below average, 4 average, while Monasavu was the only station to register above average rainfall (Figures 1-4 & Table 2). The dryness was particularly notable over the Western Division and northern parts of Vanua Levu with extended periods of without rainfall. Consequently, Labasa Airport and Lautoka Mill recorded only 1 rain day (rainfall.1mm) during the month, followed by Nadi Airport and Viwa with 2 and Rarawai Mill with 3 rain days. The frontal system that traversed over the country towards the end of the month brought some relief from the dry conditions at some stations. Labasa Airport registered 29mm of rainfall on the 3 th, with Dreketi and Seaqaqa both receiving 7mm of rainfall on the same day. Viwa, Nacocolevu, Nadi Airport, Rarawai Mill and Lautoka Mill recorded 5mm, 29mm, 13mm, 12mm and 6mm of rainfall on the 31 st, respectively. On the 3 month timescale, Koronivia, Labasa Airport, Lakeba, Lautoka, Matei Airfield, Nadi Airport, Nausori, Navua, Rarawai, Savusavu, Seaqaqa, Suva, Udu Point, Vunisea, Yasawa and Rotuma were in meteorological drought, while Dobuilevu, Ono-i-Lau, Penang and Tavua are currently in meteorological drought warning stage. On the 6 months time scale, Koronivia, Labasa, Lakeba, Nausori, Navua, Penang, Seaqaqa, Suva, Udu Point, Vunisea, Yasawa and Rotuma are in meteorological drought. Consequently, accumulated rainfall deficiencies would have started to affect shallow rooted crops, streams, creeks, wells and boreholes at majority of the places especially in the Western Division, Northern Division and the smaller islands.

3 4. AIR TEMPERATURES A. Maximum Daytime Air Temperatures The average maximum air temperatures were generally normal to above normal, with 14 out of the 21 stations recording anomalies.5 C, 6 within ±.5 C and Tokotoko was the only station to record a significant negative anomaly (-.7 C) (Table 2 & Figures 2-5). The warmest days on average was at Labasa Airport with 31.5 C, followed by Rarawai Mill with 3.9 C and Keiyasi with 29.9 C. On the other hand, coolest maximum temperature on average was registered at Monasavu with 21.7 C, and Nadarivatu with 22.6 C. Unusually hot conditions were experienced on occasions during the month. The highest daily maximum temperature of 33.5 C was recorded at Rarawai Mill on the 27 th, followed by Keiyasi with 33.3 C on the 31 st. On the contrary, cool daytime temperatures were observed at some of the stations on instances. Monasavu recorded maximum temperature as low as 17.7 C on the 21 st, followed by Nadarivatu with 19.1 C on the 17 th. The mean monthly maximum temperatures were warmer than normal at a number of stations, with the greatest departure from the normal observed at Labasa Airport (+2.3 C), followed by Nabouwalu (+1.5 C) and Viwa (+1.4 C). A record high average maximum temperature for July was registered at Labasa Airport and Nabouwalu during the month (Table 1 below). B. Minimum Night-time Air Temperatures The night-time air temperatures were also generally normal to above normal, with 9 out of the 21 stations recording average minimum temperatures.5 C, 9 within ±.5 C, and C (Table 2 & Figures 2-5). The coolest nights on average was at Nadarivatu with 15.3 C, followed by Monasavu with 15.9 C and Keiyasi with 16.2 C. Conversely, the warmest night on average was experienced at Rotuma with 24.8 C, followed by Viwa with 23.1 C. Significantly cool conditions were experienced between 18 th to 2 th, when more than half of the stations recorded their lowest daily night-time temperature for the month. Nadarivatu recorded 1.1 C on the 18 th, followed by Keiyasi with 11.1 C on the 2 th. On the other hand, Rotuma recorded night-time temperature as high as 26.3 C on the 6 th, followed by Viwa with 25. C on the 5 th. The most notable positive mean monthly minimum air temperature departure from the normal of +1.8 C was recorded at Tokotoko, while the most significant negative anomaly of 1.6 C was registered at Labasa Airport. A new high average minimum temperature record for July was established at Ono-i-lau during the month (Table 1). TABLE 1.
