Fiji hit by floods again

5:24 pm on 29 January 2009

Parts of Fiji, including Suva, have been flooded again following heavy rain.

The Fiji MetService on Thursday issued a flood warning for the town of Navua.

It says it cannot predict if heavy rain forecast for the next 48 hours will result in severe floods, but is urging locals to remain alert.

Eleven people died and thousands were made homeless in floods earlier in January.
