South Africa Today on 3 January 2026

Hello everyone, welcome to SA Today on 3 January 2026. We begin today's video with a big hailstorm over Kempton Park and Johannesburg in the Gauteng Province of South Africa today. Rain further east to Ladysmith in the KZN Province, today. Enjoying time next to the pool at ATKV Drakensville - Bergville. Preserved railway in the old locomotive shed, now a Checkers Outdoor shop at Paardevlei in Somerset West. University of Cape Town at the Sarah Baartman Hall in the Upper Campus. Rain also in Pretoria. We spent time at a shipwreck on the beach in Kommetjie, Western Cape Province. The Olifants River remains in flood within Kruger National Park. Vaalrus Resort along the Vaal River, and we show you more from across SA Today.

The weather forecast across South Africa today is as follows:
Severe storms are expected today across most of Gauteng Province, northern and central Mpumalanga Province, and southwestern and south-central Limpopo Province with a Level 2 warning for heavy rain that’ll flood vulnerable areas and damage homes and infrastructure, along with strong damaging winds, minor hail, and frequent lightning, while fire danger is extremely high over the Northern Cape Province so no outdoor burning whatsoever.

Welcome to our channel, SA Today! We will try and upload a video for you every day or the third day from somewhere around South Africa (SA) where we travel. We live in the platteland but try and see as much as we can of South Africa. Join us on a journey as we explore the beauty of South Africa through daily video captures. From breathtaking landscapes to vibrant cities, we showcase the diversity and charm of our country.

Subscribe and come along for the adventure!

We want to show our viewers as many places as we can across the country worth visiting. South Africa is a large country, and only some locals know where all these places are, we therefore add a map that we created to show where the video was captured more or less. We also try and provide some history on many of the towns, museums and events on that day in South Africa. We take pride in bringing original and captivating videos that will leave you in awe.

Also in this video, is traffic at Beaufort West from Cape Town side. A queue more than 10 km going into town. We end the video with a drive through Pretoria in the Gauteng Province of South Africa.
