Morning fog, cold and cool conditions are forecast for the Eastern Cape, Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal, according to the South African Weather Service (SAWS).
Impact-based warnings
A yellow level 2 warning for damaging waves is in effect along the coastline between Plettenberg Bay and East London. Small vessels are at risk of taking on water or capsizing, with potential localised disruption to ports and harbours. Avoid unnecessary navigation in these areas.
Advisories
An intense cold front is expected to bring adverse weather conditions to the Western Cape, Northern Cape, and Eastern Cape from Wednesday to Friday.
Prepare for cold, wet, and windy conditions, heavy rainfall and strong interior winds, gale-force winds along the coast and rough to high seas, light snowfall over high ground. Small stock farmers and the public should take necessary precautions during this period.
In SAWS’ colour-coded weather warning system, yellow indicates a moderate risk of impact that requires caution and awareness, while orange indicates that a higher-risk impact is expected, requiring increased attention and preparation.
The SAWS uses the numbers to indicate the likelihood of weather-based impacts occurring. Levels 2 and 6 are high, and Level 4 is low.
