The Gauteng Weather and Storm Warning Thread!

Well that was a a bit of a dud.

5min of promising looking rain.... Aaaand it's gone and the sun is shining.

Yeah my time lapse is a waste as well. lol But it's still staring at a dark rain cloud.

I think it'll be awesome to catch one of these supercell monsters in the act, preferably the low precipitation ones. But I noticed they're pretty uncommon here. They normally come with lots of rain. I need a better view from my place.

Fook me. Early forecasts have some rain for us next weekend. With a max temperature on Saturday of 14

Not that it was heavy rain but will you bloody inlanders sort out your weather... I was enjoying a relatively nice dinner outside in morningside and it just started fekking raining

Very overcast here in PTA East. Maybe we will also get something later tonight. No thunder and lightning.

Came down in buckets for a short while here in Boksburg. A little hail as well.

In theory still better than having a car full of hail damage.

time to get the liferaft in the boot?

as when it rain in JHB, you need a boat to get around, with all the blocked sewers.

Massive THICK clouds moving towards Pretoria from Johannesburg's side. This looks very promising. I might be waived from having to mow lawn tomorrow
