WATCH: Snow falls across KZN

There is a chill in the air as a ‘cold snap’ affects KwaZulu-Natal.

WHILE parts of the province enjoyed some much needed rain, other areas saw people waking up to find a Winter Wonderland.

Snow has been reported along the Drakensberg, Swartberg, Underberg, Lesotho and even as far as the Eastern Cape.

“South Africans can expect a cold snap to affect most parts of the country as a steep upper-air trough, having the potential to cut off and further intensify, will result in significantly cooler weather over  most  parts  of  the  country  on  Wednesday into Thursday, with the expectation of snowfalls on some southern mountains,” said the South African Weather Services (SAWS).

The SAWS also warned of heavy rain and flooding in the southern part of KwaZulu-Natal as well as gale force winds of up to 65km/h in Port Edward.
