Kumar says there is a possibility that the country should expect to have Fiji cyclone season earlier instead of November, the usual month.
He said the official Tropical Cyclone season was from November to April, but records showed cyclones occurred outside the official tropical cyclone season.
“The current El Nino has a potential to change the distribution and frequency of tropical cyclones in the region. Please note that apart from August and September, tropical cyclones have occurred in all other months in the South Pacific,” Kumar said.
