Various meteorological websites, including the SA Weather Service, are predicting isolated showers from Tuesday and thunderstorms later in the week.
“We are entering out summer months and, generally, we can expect rain over most parts of South African,” Fourie said.
“We are expecting some isolated showers for Tuesday, but Wednesday is looking like a good rainfall day for KwaZulu-Natal, when we are expecting widespread showers and rain. And then, for the rest of the country, the central part and the northern area can also expect a little bit of rain, except for the Northern Cape,” she said.
While some websites are reporting that some parts of the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal could experience some snowfall next week, Fourie said the chances were highly unlikely. “We are forecasting temperatures over 30°C in some places next week, so you cannot go from one extreme to the other – it is very unlikely. Yes there might be thunderstorms, but snow is very unlikely,” she said.
Fourie said the wet weather was caused by surface trough, that was coupled by a low pressure system over the country.
