The front moved eastwards and is now situated in the South Indian Ocean. However there is still a few reminiscence visible over parts of Kwazulu Natal. In my previous post I commented: "We might just be in for a real windy winter storm." From reports received, this cold front resulted in a real windy winter storm in parts of the Western Cape, Eastern Cape and Kwazulu Natal . Rainfall of between 5mm to 33mm was recorded in parts of the Western- and Eastern Cape. No reports of any snowfalls have been received thus far. No reports of any damage has thus far been received.
I would once again like to thank all the members of public, private sector, radio amateurs, the media and real time observers who tweeted and forwarded information and reports about this event Once again I was able to tweet and re-tweet reports and information to the general public.
Please keep on sending in reports via Twitter at @SAWXREP. With your help we can render a free information service to the public and hopefully contribute to save and better the lives of those in need during severe weather and disasters.
The next weather system to effect parts of the country is expected on the 8 May 2014 and can last up to the 10 May 2014. Updates to follow.
