Gift of the Givers to assist Cape Flats flood victims

Gift of the Givers are expected to begin the distribution of aid to areas affected by flooding around the Cape Flats on Friday

The group said it has been submerged with calls from communities struck hard by inclement weather this week.

This comes after South African Weather Service issued a yellow level 2 warning for disruptive rain and damaging winds for parts of Western Cape this week.

As a result forecaster Tokelo Chiloane said another cold front is expected to make landfall in Western Cape today.

“We’re just having a series of cold fronts that are going to be passing through the Western Cape and for me, from a meteorological perspective, this is a good thing for the Western Cape because that’s when they get most of their rainfall during this time from this cold front. So, for them it is a plus one.” Chiloane.
