This bridge is known to flood in heavy rains, and therefore caution is advised.
In the early hours of this morning, Paulshof shook with a mighty roar of thunder which caused a power outage to some areas of the suburb.
According to the SA Weather Service, more rainfall and thunderstorms are expected today.
