During the Easter weekend uMdloti is usually abuzz with tourists however this time only a handful of people are visiting the area.
Forecaster Puseletso Mofokeng says there’s potential flooding in municipalities including Umgungundlovu and eThekwini. “So these are the areas where we have a high chance of potential flooding and other parts of the province. As we move to tomorrow, we are expecting normal flooding. Even here in Gauteng there is still a chance for flooding.”
