Listening to it raining for the last hour

Don't remember getting this much rain in one day last year in CPT. Really coming down for the last 2 hours or so.

Waking up to this heavy rain and some thunder is awesome.

 

[Nanfeishen]

Getting some lightning and bit of thunder drifting in over the Edgemead\Bothasig area as well.

The worst thing one wants to hear at 4h40am during a rainstorm.... "Pappa my room is wet!!". Seems i have a bad roof leak all of sudden. Kids room under water. Wtf. Their tv and xbox drenched.

The thunderstorm woke me up. Its raining like a mofo out there at the moment.

Barely made it onto the n1.. road flooded, water actually coming out of the storm drains.. then on the n1 drove in 10m visibility at one stage passing through a hail storm and aqua planed about three times though never even going any faster than 80 until it let up past canal walk..

Yeah it rained quite a bit so EVERYTHING is ****t again today and its going to be coming down again hard at 8, apparently.

So many roads Blouberg side totally flooded. Good luck to those getting out of Flamingo Vlei - they've closed the road

I somehow doubt that.

Definitely rained hard during the night, with rumbles of thunder. Slept like a baby...

28.5mm in Kenilworth up to 7am, slightly more than I expected! Seems quiter now.

The outlook for the next 7 days is mostly dry, with a weak cold-front brushing the SW-Cape coast on Sat 28th.

Edit: The SAEON Dwarsberg mountain catchment station recorded 23mm in the hour between 5 and 6am, that is quite a downpour! Cumulative total for the last 12 hours is around 50mm.

Yeah, my weather app is a bit potato.

Pool almost full again. Happy camper. Now you get me one of that JoJo stuff for water for summer.
