Gauteng

Gauteng is still experiencing rainy and cloudy weather, as temperatures continue to peak and the Vaal Dam topping 80% and sitting at 82.4%.

However, according to Gauteng Weather there would be some respite in the form of slightly lower rain odds on Wednesday and Thursday, but rising rain was probable from Friday all the way through to the weekend.

Kruger

Gravel roads within the Kruger National Park have been closed due to the recent floods as a safety precaution measure.

The Phabeni bridge was opened but due to a high possibility of the Crocodile River flooding again, it has been closed.
