The Weather Service warns of a severe change in weather patterns over the weekend

VAAL TRIANGLE - The South African Weather Service has cautioned that a cut-off low-pressure system will trigger widespread showers, strong winds, and severe thundershowers over the weekend and early next week. Chief forecaster Kevin Rae predicts that affected areas include the western and northern interior. He says that tropical moisture from neighboring countries may cause scattered rainfall, with flood risks in central and eastern regions.
