Spring has brought a mixed day across the country, so good morning, South Africa. Expect plenty of partly cloudy skies inland through Gauteng, the Free State, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, North West and the Northern Cape. The coastal provinces are wetter, with slight rain in Cape Town and Durban, and rain showers in Gqeberha. Winds are gentle inland but stronger along the coast, reaching 20.0 km/h in the Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and Eastern Cape.
Polokwane is the warmest at 31°C, while Bloemfontein has the coldest start at 6°C. Gqeberha looks the wettest with rain showers and a high of just 16°C. The weather service has warnings for severe thunderstorms around Rustenburg, and damaging winds for Theewaterskloof and Grabouw, Kamiesberg and Garies, and Nama Khoi and Springbok, so take care in those areas.
