Cloudy and cold conditions are forecast for most parts of the country.
The South African Weather Service (SAWS) has forecast cloudy and cold conditions across the country, with disruptive snow in the Eastern Cape.
Impact-based warnings
Yellow level 2 warning: Disruptive snow leading to icy roads resulting in traffic disruptions is expected over the north-eastern high-lying areas of the Eastern Cape.
Yellow level 4 warning: Wind and waves leading to difficulty in navigation at sea, as well as small vessels taking on water, are expected between Plettenberg Bay and KuGompo (East London).
In the SAWS’s colour-coded weather warning system, yellow indicates a moderate risk of impact that requires caution and awareness, while orange indicates that a higher-risk impact is expected, requiring increased attention and preparation.
The SAWS uses the numbers to indicate the likelihood of weather-based impacts occurring. Levels 2 and 6 are high, level 5 is medium, and levels 4 and 8 are low.
Advisory
Very cold conditions are expected over the southern Namakwa district in the Northern Cape, as well as in places over the Eastern Cape interior.
