Today's weather: Extremely high fire danger in Northern Cape as heatwave grips parts of Eastern Cape
The weather forecast warns of extremely high veld fire danger across most of the Northern Cape and a heatwave in parts of the Eastern Cape until November 1, with hot conditions and isolated thunderstorms elsewhere.
Southern regions of South Africa will witness hot and fine weather with isolated showers, while Northern areas face extreme fire dangers. Communities are urged to take precautions against sun exposure due to high UVB index. Morning fog and afternoon showers/tstms are forecast for specific areas. Residents, farmers, and workers in fire-prone regions are advised to avoid activities that could start veld fires.
Motorists should be cautious of reduced visibility in foggy conditions. Heatwave advice remains active in Eastern Cape and Chris Hani/Alfred Nzo districts until November 1.
