Yasa a Catastrophic Category 5 Headed Towards Fiji

Cyclone Yasa has become a category 5 equivalent storm on the Saffir-Simpson scale with winds of 260kph / 160mph as it approaches Fiji, where landfall is possible in under 2 days. Despite the storm's current intensity, people should not focus too heavily on minute changes in the maximum wind speeds, as 5kph changes won't change the major impacts that are anticipated with Yasa. Yasa is also forecast to bring over 500 millimeters of rainfall to much of Fiji, and some areas could see isolated totals above 750 millimeters as the cyclone passes the region, alongside significant storm surge in low-lying coastal regions.

Please stay up to date with local officials and your local weather office for the latest information on your exact location, and please ensure that all preparations are rushed to completion today if you are in Fiji, as conditions will rapidly deteriorate ahead of Yasa's closest approach to the nation, and weakening of the storm is not forecasted until after Yasa passes Fiji. Please stay safe!
