KZN weather: Heavy rain alerts until Monday

“For areas over the eastern
part of KwaZulu-Natal, that area has an orange level 6 alert for disruptive rain, as compared to areas over the western
part, where they will still have a yellow level 4 for disruptive rain leading
to flooding,” says forecaster Thandiwe
Gumede.

Heavy rains are expected to lash the province
from Sunday afternoon.

Gumede says the warnings will remain in place
until Monday.

“We are
expecting the wind to change in terms of direction. That will bring cooler conditions, as the rain is also expected to continue into
Monday.”

Gumede says Sunday’s alert for uncomfortable
conditions due to high temperatures applies to Ulundi, the Midlands, Vryheid,
and Richards Bay.

It is likely to remain warm in some parts on
Monday.

“The northern
part of the province still expected to remain fairly hot, particularly over the
areas of the north-eastern part of KZN,” said Gumede.
