SAWS Forecaster, Dipuo Tawana says isolated thundershowers are expected to continue across Gauteng for the next few days and possibly into the weekend. Tawana says, “We are having what we call a continental low pressure system over Botswana that is bringing in tropical moisture together with surface troughs over the western interior. For the northern parts and rest of the interior, we have a Level 2 that is disruptive rainfall and it will be localised flooding of some areas and informal settlements, and one other reason is that in most areas the ground is still wet from the amount of rainfall we received.
Allow Eskom to pollute more... let's see how much worse we can make the climate crisis...
There's something in the BRICS countries weather system which does not make sense for now.
