South Africa Today on 13 January 2026

Описание: Hello everyone, welcome to SA Today on 13 January 2026. We begin today's video with flooded streets in Phalaborwa in the Limpopo Province of South Africa today. Heavy rain and rising rivers flood low-lying bridges in Tzaneen and Hoedspruit. Then flooding in the Kruger National Park. Heavy rain and flooding are forecast for other parts of Kruger Park today. The low bridges are expected to flood, and no crossing is allowed. Heavy rain was observed today around Tzaneen and Hoedspruit, with flooding of the Letaba River. It's a busy day on the beach at Strand and a windy day for kite flying at Bloubergstrand. We stop at the Klipwerf Padstal in Calvinia and the Bagdad Café is closed on a Monday. Big rain storm along the N4 near Middelburg today, and we show you more from across SA Today.

The weather forecast across South Africa today is as follows:
The eastern parts of South Africa (around the Kruger National Park) are bracing for dangerous flooding as tropical moisture continues dumping rain on already saturated ground, with the worst conditions expected in Bushbuckridge and the eastern Mopani area, where life-threatening mudslides, rockfalls, and fast-moving water could force families from their homes and destroy roads, livestock, and livelihoods. The escarpment areas of Mpumalanga Province and Limpopo Province will also see damaging rainfall and flooding, while scattered showers bring localized trouble to central Mpumalanga Province, eastern Limpopo Province, and northern KwaZulu-Natal Province where low-lying bridges and informal settlements remain vulnerable. Meanwhile, the western half of the country faces the opposite extreme as a stubborn heatwave grips the Northern Cape Province, Eastern Cape Province, Free State Province, and parts of the Western Cape Province, creating bone-dry conditions and extreme fire danger across the Northern Cape Province, western Free State Province, and southwestern North West Province where any spark could quickly get out of control.

Welcome to our channel, SA Today! We will try and upload a video for you every day or the third day from somewhere around South Africa (SA) where we travel. We live in the platteland but try and see as much as we can of South Africa. Join us on a journey as we explore the beauty of South Africa through daily video captures. From breathtaking landscapes to vibrant cities, we showcase the diversity and charm of our country.

Subscribe and come along for the adventure!

We want to show our viewers as many places as we can across the country worth visiting. South Africa is a large country, and only some locals know where all these places are, we therefore add a map that we created to show where the video was captured more or less. We also try and provide some history on many of the towns, museums and events on that day in South Africa. We take pride in bringing original and captivating videos that will leave you in awe.

Also in this video, is traffic at Beaufort West from Cape Town side. A queue more than 10 km going into town. We end the video with a short video of Gordons Bay in the Western Cape Province of South Africa.
