Cape Town experiencing the 'Perfect Storm'?
Social media is abuzz with the latest developments from the #CapeStorm.
The Western Cape has been preparing for an extreme storm over the past few days, so extreme that schools in the Western Cape will close their doors tomorrow as a massive storm approaches.
The storm will bring high winds of up to 90km per hour with it. Rains of up to 50mm or more over a 24-hour period across various areas has also been forecast. Very high seas are expected with swells reaching 10 to 12 metres.
However, at the moment that doesn't seem to be the case. Capetonians have taken to social media to express what a nice day it is in the Mother City.
Maybe it is the calm before the storm?

I'm not worried about the #capestorm. I'm a good swimmer.
