That's as a tropical cyclone is developing to the north of South Africa, near Mozambique.

"We are seeing it impacting South Africa more over the Limpopo lowveld, Limpopo Valley, Mpumalanga lowveld and the northern part of KwaZulu Natal by late afternoon heading into evening on Thursday," says forecaster Dipuo Tawana.

Tawana says it's too early to issue an official warning for a tropical cyclone.

"People are just alerted to a heads-up. There is still a lot of uncertainty when we look at our models as to how it will progress and when it will hit our lowveld," says Tawana.
