Two tropical cyclones have formed in the southwest Pacific Ocean.
Tropical storm Tomas has developed to become a cyclone, and is currently positioned northeast of Fiji.
It is expected to intensify to a very powerful storm by the time it reaches Fiji on Monday (GMT).
Suva on the island of Viti Levu could face winds of up to 130mph (209km/h) and heavy seas in the next few days.
Fiji's Disaster Management Authority has activated its local teams to ensure communities are ready and medical centres have been told to prepare.
The other tropical cyclone, Ului, has developed in the eastern parts of the Coral Sea. It is currently packing wind speeds of over 100 mph (161km/h), but these may increase to over 200 mph (322km/h) as it drifts westwards over open waters during the next few days.
