Izimvula zasehlobo zokuqala sezisendleleni. ISouth African Weather Service ithi kulindeleke ukuduma kwezulu eLimpopo, eMpumalanga nasenyakatho yeGauteng kule mpelasonto.
Isexwayiso sezinga lokuqala esiphuzi sisendaweni yokuduma kwezulu okunamandla kwezinye izindawo, njengoba isimo sezulu esishisayo sihlangana nomoya omanzi ovela enyakatho.
Isangoma sezulu uLehlohonolo Thobela uthe impelasonto izobe iguqubele futhi ifudumale, kube nomkhemezelo omncane. “Ezinye izingxenye ezisenyakatho zinamathuba angu-60% emvula namuhla,” usho kanje.
“NgeSonto, lizobe liguqubele futhi lipholile, kodwa kuzoba nomkhemezelo omncane eningizimu.”
INorthern Gauteng, kuhlanganisa nePitoli, izohlala ifudumele ngempelasonto.
Isazi sezulu seVox Weather u-Annette Botha uthe lolu shintsho ludalwa yibhande lomoya ofudumele elibizwa nge-intertropical convergence zone. Uma liya eningizimu, liletha izivunguvungu nemvula eningizimu ye-Afrika.
“Lokhu kujwayele ukwenzeka phakathi kukaLwezi noNdasa,” kusho yena. “Kodwa uma kunokushisa nomswakamo owanele, ukuduma kwezulu kungaqala ngisho nasentwasahlobo.”
UBotha wengeze ngokuthi izakhamuzi eziningi zasePitoli zikholelwa ukuthi imvula yokuqala ivamise ukuna ngomhlaka-10 kuMfumfu usuku lokuzalwa luka-Paul Kruger.
“Imvamisa ngalesi sikhathi i-zone iqala ukuya eningizimu,” kusho yena.
Abalimi bathi sebeyilungele isizini entsha. “Abalimi bahlale beyilungele imvula engu-99.9%,” kusho usihlalo we-TLU SA, uBennie van Zyl. “Imvula yakamuva yangonyaka odlule ishiye umswakamo emhlabathini, okusiza izitshalo ukuthi zikhule ngokushesha manje.”
