- South Africa: Severe Storms Hit Cape Town, Several Areas Flooded | Firstpost Africa
The South African city of Cape Town and surrounding areas faced a new wave of devastating storms on Thursday, ripping roofs off houses and causing extensive flooding. At least 4,500 people were displaced, and 15,000 structures damaged. Authorities are continuing relief efforts as more bad weather is expected. Schools have been closed, and major rivers burst their banks, prompting evacuations. Since late last week, multiple cold fronts have brought record rainfall and gale-force winds to the region. Authorities expect the bad weather to persist through the weekend and possibly into next week.

FYI, only flooding due to the kak draining system, then tomorrow they say the dams don't have water
That would be Drakenstein, not Drakensberg.
Came here to say this!
In the 1400's, Portugese seafarers called it Cabo Tormentosa, aka Cape of Storms. The Mother City welcomes us by showing her true colours. Weather in Cape Town is always perfect; dress accordingly 😊😂🎉
Not in winter rains are high.If don't rain for 3 weeks that means ther will be drought
Praying for everyone's safety and for this to be over soon. We are experiencing the exact opposite (heat waves). Sending much love from Greece ❤
OUR LADY OF AFRICA
The Blessed Virgin Mary
