💨 Abstract

The South African Weather Service (SAWS) issued a severe weather warning for Gauteng, Limpopo, and Mpumalanga, predicting dangerous thunderstorms with hail, heavy rain, and flooding. The City of Tshwane urged residents to stay indoors, avoid electrical conductors, and exercise caution on roads. Emergency teams are on standby. The warning follows a cut-off low-pressure system affecting the region. Meteorologists warn of increased severe weather due to potential La Niña conditions.
