Severe weather conditions hit large parts of Gauteng this past weekend after the South African Weather Service (SAWS) issued a notice for severe thunderstorms across the province.
Heavy downpours accompanied by hail and strong winds resulted in localized flooding and swollen rivers around the Tshwane Metropolitan area.
Videos have surfaced of a heavy hailstorm in Laudium, Pretoria on Saturday but no major damage has been reported.
According to the City of Tshwane’s Emergency Services Spokesperson, Johan Pieterse the City responded to all complaints in the metro and assessed every incident.
‘’A major issue was low-lying areas and informal settlements were severely hit by rising waters.
“We had to evacuate residents on Saturday to temporal locations, but they were able to go back to their homes on Sunday once the waters had subsided.’’ Pieterse told News24 on Monday morning.
The South African Weather Service (SAWS) is reporting partly cloudy and warm weather with fog patches around Gauteng for the rest of Monday. WATCH.
