With the cold weather, there is also a possibility of higher load shedding stages, adding to the challenges the country is already facing with stage 4 load shedding since Wednesday. According to forecaster Lehlohonolo Thobela, there is a 30% chance of rain throughout the day. But weather analysts expect the cold weather will continue over the weekend with reduced rainfall. However, the weather will likely pick up on Sunday, leading into Monday and the rest of the following week.
The weather service advises residents to prepare for the chilly temperatures and possible electricity disruptions.
