Title: Floods in the Western Cape.

Apparently, quite bad around Somerset West, Strand and also Gordon's Bay. Martin, would you have been affected had you still been there?

Was a pretty heavy rainfall in Durban yesterday afternoon ( Wed) with a lot of rain in a very short time, complete with hail. When I was driving home at 7PM though the roads were close to dry and the stars were visible through the clouds.

I didn't see much of that...had my hands in boxes at the time. But no...that would have been away from where our home was based.
