• Some dams (including Tokwe-Mukosi) are 100% full, this can cause downstream flooding should the dams overspill.
ACTIONS TO TAKE
• Do not cross flooded rivers and swollen streams whether on foot or in a vehicle as just 30cm of flowing water is enough to sweep away a vehicle.
• Avoid driving on a road covered by water especially at night or during downpours when it is more difficult to recognize flood dangers. Even if no heavy rains have occurred in your area, they may have occurred up-stream
• Be ‘Weather-ready; always plan with the weather in mind.
