But he says Tuesday's rain will not be as bad Monday's. 


"Tomorrow it is moderate, not as much as today. However, in the morning areas over the south-eastern KZN, including eThekwini, are still under the alert under level two warning for the morning. 


"As the day progresses, it will start getting better and clearing, so by Wednesday to Thursday, we are not expecting rain across the province."
