Leeuwspoor - baaah, was just an isolated thunder cell. Very little rain, lots of thunder.

Striptease and cockblock routine.

 

[Arzy]

Yeah, some rain here in Alberton, don't know how long it will last

 

[Arzy]

Oooooooo, even some light hail now

 

[namzsteve]

Bis storm brewing and incoming from the south. I'm in Braamfontein at the moment, and it's heading this way at a rate.

Where are you seeing this? Would love to see that.

Lots of cloud cover moving over Bryanston at the moment.

Watch, it'll just be a tease, it won't even rain. That's all we've been experiencing the last few days

 

[Drifter]

Yep, it'moving towards the east now. Wind turned.

 

[Toxic T]

Coming down nice here in fourways. Hope it lasts

You know Stage 2 water restrictions are in place. Take the risk if you want, or maybe you have a bore hole.

You have no idea what stage 2 water restrictions mean, do you? You're allowed to water your garden 18:00-6:00, same as level 1 except the pressure may be restricted.

Areas have started running dry in Pretoria, so even if not official yet, I'd recommend not watering any lawn whatever time of day.

 

[Speedster]

Proper thundershower in the Moot

 

[wbot]

Nice, another proper storm over here and the clouds are yellow

 

[cavedog]

Nice rain and lightning in Wierdapark Centurion

Over faster than a baptism on a busy Sunday in Church

That really sucks for PTA. If I was living there and the they told me not to I wouldn't water my garden either. I'm sure they raise the water restriction level to 3, 4 or higher as they see fit.

We had 3mm this morning and another 10mm now.

 

[Francois Marais]

Just had a nice storm in Hazeldean Silverlakes. Got to test my SlowMo on the iPad and iPhone. Was still to light outside to do the whole SLR setup to shoot lightning
