Strong wind in Solomon Islands has destroyed homes while flood waters have damaged food gardens.
The Solomon Islands Broadcasting Corporation reported a number of families in East Malaita had been made homeless on Monday night by the weather.
Their crops were destroyed when the Kwaibaita river burst its banks, which may have also contaminated their drinking water.
A similar scene was reported in the Russel Islands in Central Province and on Guadalcanal, where the Ngalibiu river swept through villages in the island's east on Tuesday morning.
