Took the dog out of a walk before my shower. Then a shower took me and the dog for a p03s.

I'm now having to dry off to take a shower

Another 35mm in our gauge in Kenilworth this morning. The puddles are back on our lawn. The main front has passed, but intermittent heavy showers are likely until lunchtime. Temperatures have dropped sharply, and light snow is likely over the high mountain peaks. Dam levels are likely to rise further, though this won't be reflected in this morning's numbers.

The wind was indeed rather gusty at times, probably the strongest so far this winter, and seemingly coming from multiple directions.

The rest of the week looks significantly drier, but will remain rather cold for the next few days. The first sunny and warm day will be on Thurs 22nd, though that seems like an isolated episode. Next weekend is looking unsettled again.

I didn't even take a raincoat.... what a fail. Looked like it was going to be fine and then out of nowhere a massive deluge.

Crazy wind just pushed a big old pine tree over the M3 near UCT toward Muizenberg. Never seen wind like that before. Drive safe out there.
