“So the whole Vaal/Orange system is in increased activity and that is why we need to increase the releases. What we want to put across to all those that are downstream of this activity is that they need to protect their lives and secondly to protect their livelihoods. Whether it is by removing pumps from the pathway. Whether is by evacuating low-lying areas,” says Ratau.
“Our warning out for today for some parts on northern parts including Amajuba district and some parts of Zululand as well uMkhanyakude district. We are expecting disruptive rain for today . We can expect some impact such as localised flooding even for national roads as well as some bridges there might even be soil erosion in some areas in the mentioned municipalities.
