Recent storms have had a significant effect on shipping, particularly containers which are avoiding pirate attacks in the Red Sea (Suez Canal) route:
Any issues driving to Stellenbosch today?
Naaas, new thread. I might as well say it's raining currently.
Rained heavily overnight but seems fine now. My wife just went for a jog actually.
There will be a long queue at golf courses and driving ranges.I didn't realise how many pages we added in the last week! Mostly dry overnight in Kenilworth, but bucketing down when I woke up this morning.
This event seems to be more showery rain. Dry spells interspersed with heavy downpours.
P.S. All forecasts indicate that Monday 15th will be dry, but the rest of next week looks mixed...
Also raining hereRaining

Depends on the course. Greens are usually upside down saucers, so the water runs off quickly.Do you think the groundwater on flooded golf courses will magically disappear in one day?

Burgundy is a mashie course and there is not much fairway, so that one should be fine.
Parow golf course I’m not sure, will drive past there and look.
Driving ranges not an issue.
I've measured 331mm of rainfall, from the 4th to the 12th of July 2024.
It's still raining so it'll be well over 350mm today.
Kirstenbosch would be more.
That is probably half or more of our annual rainfall in this part of the Southern Suburbs of CT.
