The South African Weather Services (SAWS) has predicted another temperature drop and snowfall in some parts of the country starting from Wednesday.
The weather service said the Cape will be affected mainly by the cold expected to develop from the southern part of the country’s interior.
“Apart from the impact of widespread, bitterly cold and showery conditions setting in over the Cape provinces, the SAWS expects snowfall to occur over the higher mountains of the Cape provinces today [Wednesday], spreading to include the Drakensberg Mountain peaks of Lesotho and KwaZulu-Natal on Thursday,” the SAWS said.
Rainy weather can be expected to intensify in some parts of Northern Cape, North West, Gauteng, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and Mpumalanga, which will be heavier on Friday over the western and central part of these provinces.
“Persistent rainfall is therefore likely to lead to localised flooding and minor disruptions of road traffic. Moreover, there is also the possibility of a few thunderstorms developing, some of which may become severe.
