Heavy rain experienced earlier in the day in the Sugar City had led to the flooding of Tawatawa crossing in Lautoka.
The national weather forecasting centre in Nadi has reiterated its heavy rain warning that is in force for the whole of the Fiji group.
There is an active trough of low pressure that remains slow moving over the group, and associated cloud and rain will affect the country.
