The Fiji Meterological Service on Tuesday said the tropical depression had only a low chance of developing into a tropical cyclone.
However, many in Fiji without homes or with damaged houses after Cyclone Winston a month ago are being told to be aware of flash flooding.
The low trough is moving eastwards and the heavy rain warning is for the whole of the country.
