The 'Massive' Gauteng Weather and Storm Warning Thread! The Sequel

[Heisenborg]

It'll survive, plus rain and cold. Worse than dry

That's not how it works.

As long as it doesn't form ice crystals, any moisture is good

Still wet and dripping outside and the temperature has dipped to 17deg inside. Got my jackets and extra duvets out tonight. Sometimes I really enjoy this weather.

I couldn't quite believe my eyes when driving home this afternoon, but there was definitely some convective activity around, albeit nothing close to what we see in summer time

The end of an era! If it does not rain in Pretoria East within the next 6 hours, then our run of rain every month since August 2024 ends tonight...

Models have been all over the map (literally) for this event. The ensemble spread at the 500hPa level still shows significant uncertainty. Rather wait a day or two for the forecasts to stabilise.

I'm in Drakensberg from tomorrow til Tuesday.

Send pics please. After the Kruger, this is my best place in the world. With so many mountain hikes, sleepovers in caves, in winter too, I yearn for more.

Will see what I can do. My phone is good at close ups but seems lacking in the panoramic shots.

You might be staying longer?

The thought had crossed my mind after seeing latest weather forecasts. Hoping the route is clear leaving there.
