This is not an exhaustive list, but only what has been reported.
We also do caution the public that this is a constantly changing situation, and given the near consistent downpours, additional incidents of flooded roadways can happen at any time.
So, if you are on the roads, please drive with extreme caution, be on the lookout for any flooded areas, drive with your headlights on at all times, and increase your following distance.
Weather-related impacts to date include some flooding of roads and fallen trees.
Assessments are underway in Philippi, where reports of flooding have been received. Similar reports are under investigation in Asanda Village and Mfuleni.
In Endlovini, where approximately 800 structures were impacted by strong gusts of wind overnight on Thursday, the City is in discussions with Province and National Government about shelter for affected persons requiring assistance. Humanitarian relief efforts are ongoing in the area - Gift of the Givers has set up a base in Khayelitsha to distribute meals and blankets.
While many of the roads flooded in the early hours of the morning have been cleared, there will likely be further impacts, so we remind motorists to please exercise extreme caution.
The Roads Department is conducting an inspection in Kalk Bay to check for any additional impacts following two mud slides there earlier this week – the department is also pumping water from Highlands Estate.
The Recreation and Parks Department has had four incidents reported thus far of trees falling over.
Residents are advised to please stay indoors as far as possible, and to report any service requests on one of the channels outlined below (see graphic).
