The Solomon Islands Meteorological Service has this morning issued a nationwide Heavy Rain Alert.

The Heavy Rain warning is enforced for most provinces and Islands.

This follows a trough which lies over northeast parts of the country.

Associated Clouds with isolated Heavy Rain Showers and thunderstorms are expected to affect the Solomon Islands within the next two days.

The Met Service warn communities living close to large rivers, streams and low-lying areas to take precautionary measures as this may lead to flash flooding.
