Increasing water levels in the Rewa River contributed to the flooding in the Rewa Delta.

The road to Toga village remains inaccessible as it is taking time for water to recede due to continuous rain.

Floodwaters have also affected farms and livestock.

The Syria Park in Nausori was also flooded and Police are working to ensure that people refrain from moving around flooded areas.

Most businesses in Nausori continue to provide services as the town was not affected.
