More cold weather is on its way for residents of the Western and Northern Cape as an intense cold front is expected to hit late on Sunday, the South African Weather Service has warned

Cape Town - More cold weather is on its way for residents of the Western and Northern Cape as an intense cold front is expected to hit late on Sunday, the South African Weather Service has warned.

"The public and small stock farmers are advised that gale-force winds, heavy rain leading to flooding, very cold conditions as well as very rough seas can be expected. Heavy rain leading to flooding is expected over the Cape Metropole, Western Cape Winelands and western Overberg in the Western Cape on Monday," the weather service said.

The City of Cape Town has also warned of an increased risk of flooding, particularly as some parts of the metropole are still mopping up after heavy rains on Thursday and Friday caused serious damage in a number of informal settlements. Homes built next to the Dieprivier in the Zwelitsha informal settlement in Dunoon were flooded after heavy rainfall. Picture: Henk Kruger/African News Agency
