The persistent rains are expected to stop on Wednesday.
However, according to Forecaster Phephisa Sihlongonyane, the country is not yet out of the woods.
Sihlongonyane said the tropical low that caused devastation due to persistent rainfall over most parts of the country had moved to the Indian Ocean.
“While this has brought huge relief, the normal weather patterns associated with cold fronts and tropical moist air, which are common during the rainy season, are now taking centre stage,” said Sihlongonyane.
He explained that a cold front passed over the country on Saturday afternoon, resulting in the thunderstorms, rain showers and windy conditions experienced in some areas.
Sihlongonyane said yesterday and likely today, south-easterly winds would bring cool, moist air from the Indian Ocean.
