The South African Weather Service has issued a warning for the possibility of severe thunderstorms across Gauteng on Monday, with the City of Tshwane metro excluded from the alert.
The weather service warns that the storms could bring heavy downpours, raising the risk of localised flooding in affected areas. Residents have also been cautioned about the potential for hail and damaging winds.
The warning comes as parts of the province continue to experience unstable weather conditions, with thunderstorms expected to develop during the day. Authorities have urged residents to remain vigilant, particularly in low-lying and flood-prone areas.
Motorists are advised to exercise caution on the roads, while residents are encouraged to secure loose outdoor items and avoid unnecessary travel during severe weather conditions.
