South Africa on 5 August 2025 Today

Today's daily update video from South Africa is on 5 August 2025. We begin today's video with the Victoria road was flooded today. Heavy rainfall in the area, accompanied by a large cold front that arrived today over Cape Town and surrounding areas, led to roads and street crossings being flooded. Rain in the strand at 07:00 this morning. Coldfront moving over Upington bringing icy conditions. Then, to the North, firefighting efforts were underway on farms near Heidelberg, where veld fires had broken out. Drive the dirt roads around Trawal. Buffalo cross the Sabie River in the Kruger National Park and wilddogs on the H4-1 road near Lower Sabie, and then more of South Africa.

A cold front is sweeping across the Cape today, bringing scattered to widespread showers over western South Africa. As an upper-air trough develops into a cut-off low by Wednesday, expect a band of scattered showers to affect the eastern Northern Cape Province, western Eastern Cape Province, and further east into the North West Province, Free State Province, and the remainder of the Eastern Cape Province overnight into tomorrow. Temperatures will drop sharply, with the possibility of isolated light snow in southern Namibia. Central South Africa may see a mix of rain, sleet, or snow as this weather system moves through. Extremely high fire danger conditions are anticipated across the western half of North West, northeastern KwaZulu-Natal, and the Nyandeni Local Municipality in the Eastern Cape Province. Very cold, wet, and windy conditions are expected in the Namakwa of the Northern Cape Province and the Western Cape Province. Stay safe and prepared for the changing weather conditions!
