Latest weather forecast information for your city or prefecture
A heatwave is expected in parts of South Africa and high temperatures are expected in large parts of South Africa.
Areas affected include KwaZulu-Natal, Gauteng, the North West, and large parts of the Northern and Western Cape. In some parts of the country, this is putting additional pressure on fire-prone areas.
Scattered clouds are expected in some parts of the country by then, so relief could be expected by the end of the week.
South Africa heatwave forecast
South Africa's heatwave is expected to continue this week.
We ask everyone affected by rising temperatures to stay safe and stay hydrated. Dehydration and heat stroke are associated with high temperatures.
Stay hydrated throughout and avoid direct sunlight. Headaches and fatigue are just two symptoms associated with high fever.
