“So far in the past week we have been seeing temperatures falling and we got the lowest from Keiyasi, which registered 10.6 degrees last night and there are several other locations in Fiji that has recorded less than 15 degree centigrade, Majority of the stations they have recorded below 20 degrees centigrade last night.”
