Another heatwave can be expected in parts of the country this week.
“Apart from this feature blocking the arrival of tropically sourced moisture , upper-air highs are well-known to be associated with large-scale air stability and sinking air masses. Such systems inhibit thunderstorm development, but perhaps more importantly in this case, the sinking air heats up quite dramatically,” it said.Newly elected Johannesburg mayor Dada Morero said water supply across the city will be back to normal on Monday. “We are now hopeful that water will be restored.
“The challenges are, as we said on Friday, the hot weather conditions are contributing because once the levels are pushed higher and distributed immediately, the water gets finished. So we have to constantly push the levels in the reservoirs, but we are doing better and we are confident that by Monday everybody will have water,”He was speaking at an inspection of reservoirs and towers in parts of Johannesburg after a water shortage hit some areas.
“We call [for] a water revolution and that involves communities having JoJo [tanks] in each house ... to help us preserve the water for drinking and cooking,” said Morero.predict that scattered thunderstorms and rain can be expected on Sunday and Monday.
