Gauteng Weather: Severe thunderstorms and hail observed over Johannesburg

Every day is an adventure when it comes to Gauteng weather. From flash flood predictions to a heatwave and stage one water restrictions, and now thunderstorms and hail.

While traffic app Rob Beezy urged residents to be careful on the roads, netizens were sending video clips and photos of the storms to ReenvalSA on Twitter.

Gauteng weather update: The South African Weather Service also warned that severe thunderstorms leading to strong damaging winds and heavy downpours were expected over large parts of Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni, Mogale City and Tshwane.

According to Ventusky, Johannesburg residents can expect intermittent storms until Monday. Tuesday will be partly cloudy, with storms to pick up again from Wednesday.
