The South African Weather Service (SAWS) says a cold front is expected to move in over the Western Cape and Western parts of the Northern Cape on Sunday.
The weather service has warned of localised flooding and snow fall until Monday.

The cold front will then move to the South Western interior of KwaZulu-Natal on Tuesday, which will bring very cold maximum temperatures of less than ten degrees.
A cold front is also in Gauteng this week – as Forecaster Victoria Nurse says, “We do have a cold front that will move through Gauteng and this will happen on Tuesday into Wednesday. We expect quite a significant drop in temperature, especially minimum temperatures. However, we will still have clear conditions with no rainfall or cold conditions expected.”
