The South African Weather Service (SAWS) has issued a Yellow Level 2 weather warning for Cape Town, the Cape Winelands, and Overberg. Heavy rain and strong winds have been forecasted.
“A Yellow Level 2 warning for disruptive rain leading to localised flooding of susceptible informal settlements, low-lying roads and bridges can be expected over the southern Cape Winelands, western Overberg and the city of Cape Town in the Western Cape,” SAWS said.
Mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis has expressed concern for those living in informal settlements as drain blockage continues to set communities back. With another cold front on the way, disaster management officials could have a big weekend ahead.
Keep safe and warm, Cape {town} Etc family.
