On December 6, the FMS issued a gale warning for Tokelau before reports of gale-force winds of 75 km/h (45 mph) were received later that day, as the system passed about 370 km (230 mi) to the southwest of the island nation.[1]

Val was estimated to have caused US$750,000 in damage to the island nation.[2]

Val damaged and destroyed several seawalls that had been partially constructed after Cyclone Ofa.[2] The United Nations Development Programme subsequently funded a project between 1992 and 1995, which provided a limited reconstruction of the areas damaged by the cyclone.[2]
