  • February 3 - 4, 1948 – A tropical cyclone impacted Fiji where it caused heavy rain, gale force winds and a moderate amount of damage over Viti Levu.[2]

The system subsequently turned south-southeastwards during the following day, while its movement slowed which caused prolonged heavy rainfall and flooding over Viti Levu and in the district of Labasa on Vanua Levu.
