The South African Weather Service has issued a yellow level 2 warning for 20 July, alerting residents and authorities to potentially hazardous weather conditions. The warning includes damaging winds and waves, which are anticipated to cause difficulties in navigation at sea between Saldanha Bay and Plettenberg Bay in the morning.
In addition to the maritime warning, the weather service has also issued an advisory for disruptive rain over the southwestern parts of the Western Cape. This rain is expected to lead to the flooding of roads and susceptible settlements, posing risks to both transportation and local communities.
