Widespread thundershowers expected along KZN coastal areas - SAWS
If you live along the KwaZulu-Natal coast, brace yourself for some wet weather from Thursday evening.
The South African Weather Service has issued a Yellow Level 2 warning, with possible flooding.
"For KwaZulu-Natal today, we are expecting widespread showers and thundershowers along our coastal region of the province from Port Edward to Richards Bay," says SAWS forecaster Wisani Maluleke.
"For the remaining parts, it is a 60% chance of showers and thundershowers and 30% in the extreme north, which include Vryheid and Pongola."

Maluleke says the downpours are expected to continue into Friday.
He says the wet weather is linked to a passing cold front.
"Areas over the Drakensberg, you might get maximum temperatures in the region of less than 10 degrees.
"Along the coastal areas - Durban side, you might have temperatures of about 20 degrees which is quite low and cold for Durban temperatures."
