The service's Aslam Sardiwalla says there's an alert for severe thunderstorms over the north-western areas of the province.

"We're expecting the possibility of heavy rain overall along the coastline on KwaZulu-Natal as well as the adjacent interior particularly in the afternoon extending into the evening. This could be associated with localised flooding and even flash flooding in places depending on the intensity of the rain in any given location in those parts," he says.
