The Solomon Islands Meteorological Service (SIMS) has officially cancelled the strong wind warning that was in place for the waters of Rennell & Bellona Province, as well as the southern waters of Russell Islands, Western, and Guadalcanal provinces.

However, according to SIMS a trough remains south of the Solomon Islands.

Northerly winds of 20–25 knots in the affected areas have now eased below warning thresholds, the authority said.

Despite the cancellation, residents and mariners are advised to expect poor visibility in showers and thunderstorms, SIMS said.

The cancellation was issued at 4pm yesterday.

This is the final update regarding the warning.
