Today hasn’t been that bad.
But tomorrow looks rather ominous.
The South African Weather Service (SAWS) has issued an Orange Level 8 weather warning for disruptive rainfall in the Western Cape.
Level 8 indicates “Severe” impact, and yes, Mother Nature is throwing everything at us all at once: big waves, big winds, and a lot of rain.
The Garden Route was hit by an Orange Level 8 last week, and… well…
It didn’t end well.
While many schools in the Winelands are closed tomorrow, ours in Cape Town go ahead unless we hear differently overnight.
We’re as ready as we can be.
I have an umbrella.
Let’s see what happens.
