Strong wind warning is still effective for most parts of the Solomon Islands.

The Solomon Islands Meteorological Services (SIMS) on Sunday, July 13, 2025 at 4pm issued strong wind warning twenty-three.

SIMS said a strong wind warning is current for waters of Temotu, Makira, Rennell & Bellona, Guadalcanal, Central, Malaita and Western provinces.

According to SIMS, the situation is that a trough lies north of Solomon Islands and a general easterly trade wind flow persists over the country.

The expectancy of southeast winds was 20 to 25 knots over waters Temotu, Makira Rennell & Bellona, Guadalcanal, Central, Malaita and Western provinces.

SIMS said seas will be moderate to rough with moderate southeast swells of 2.5 – 3.0 meters.

As noted, people in these areas are urged to take precautionary measures as such strong winds have the potential to impact lives and properties and sea travellers are urged to consider safety actions as such winds can produce dangerous wave conditions, hazardous to small boats.
