Hey I got pissed on all the way from your dorp to bloem a couple of months ago or 3
You had your summer rain
The rest of the rain is OURS

Slaapstad has had more rain than Dirtbin I reckon over the last while.
Actually I think its all a white minority capital ploy against Africa as a whole that we have no rain, and it is pissing me of a little bit tbh.

Pretty significant storm heading for the Western Cape. Arrival around late Friday early Saturday. High winds and lots of rain.

My observations say it is moving faster than the gurus think it is moving. Either way, the predictions are that it is going to be quite a storm.

Unfortunately, after the rain this weekend (15-16 Jul), another dry week looms ahead....

Flippen cold today. Had 1°C on the bike to work. My wife just sent these pics.

If any place , the Ceres area is normally best for snow although accessing it is practically impossible.

On the HH mountains in Somerset West

Depends on how close you want to get to the snow

You could simply look towards the mountains, or travel to Ceres to get up close and dirty or even go up Table Mountain.

Tulbagh but it is a short drive from the Cederberg which is where the snow usually is and where you need a 4x4 to get deep into the Kagga Kamma Nature Reserve, sometimes the snow reaches normal street level there though.

Alternatively Jonkershoek in Stellenbosch also gets snow from time to time, no 4x4 required, but you'd need to hike fairly high up.
