Motorists are also urged to exercise caution on the roads.

"Isolated showers and thundershowers dominate the eastern parts, which would also cover the North West, Gauteng, Free State, into the eastern half of the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, as well as parts of Mpumalanga and Limpopo. However, a scattered chance of showers and thundershowers is expected for the northern parts of Limpopo," said SAWS forecaster, Lehlohonolo Thobela.
