The South African Weather Service (SAWS) issued a yellow level 1 weather warning for parts of the Western Cape on Wednesday.
“A yellow level 1 warning for damaging wind, resulting in localised problems for high-sided vehicles on prone routes (especially in the N1) due to cross winds on exposed high-level roads/bridges, and risk of localised runaway fires, is expected over the southern parts of the Northern Cape as well as the central parts of the Western Cape,” the statement reads.
