Weather update: Storm-water drain flooding in lower ends of Ladysmith CBD

Parts of the lower end of the Ladysmith CBD were partially flooded as storm-water drains failed to cope with the continuous rainfall experienced over the past few days.

The Klip River is flowing fast and the water level reached 6.5 metres high. Should it go over 7 metres, flood conditions will possibly be declared.
