Snow in SA and icy winds to hit Gauteng as cold front looms
Updated | By Jacaranda FM
Another cold front is bringing snow to SA and icy winds to Pretoria.

Will winter ever come to an end?
Looks like we're in for another severe cold snap in Gauteng.
According to the Pretoria Rekord, the cold front will bring snow to several parts of South Africa, and icy winds are expected to blow through Pretoria.

The cold front is expected to make its way from Thursday, the 31st of July.
This week remains cool to cold in Gauteng, with temperatures staying below 20°C. No rain is expected in the northern parts of the country. By Friday, it will be even colder in Gauteng, especially in the south, due to a cold front expected to reach the country on Wednesday. A chilly southerly wind will blow at times on Friday.- Michelle du Plessis
Just when we thought it was going to ease up, winter had one more surprise for us. Let's hope it's the last one, because it's been a long, long winter.
If you're able to help someone keep warm this week, please help make a difference.
Luckily, Warm Fees 2025 is back, and Martin Bester, Round Table, and Good Morning Angels are working together to help keep communities warm this winter.
