LIMPOPO – Die Hoedspruit-omgewing het die afgelope week goeie reën ontvang met verskeie damme wat oorloop en riviere wat afkom.

Die lugfoto’s is geneem deur plaaslike gyrocoptervlieënier, Tom van der Meulen. Van der Meulen het teen druktyd Maandag gesê hy het sedert die begin van die seisoen reeds 383mm by sy huis op Kampersrus gemeet, maar sê reënval is wisselvallig in die gebied. By die Klaseriedam is daar verlede week meer as 150mm gemeet en die dam het Sondagaand begin oorloop.
