The South African Weather Service (SAWS) has warned beachgoers and boaters along the Western Cape coastline to stay out of harm’s way on Saturday as gale-force winds are expected to batter the stretch between Cape Point and Cape Agulhas.
A Yellow Level 2 warning is in effect for damaging coastal winds in the morning, while the rest of the country settles into a typically cool autumn day with cold starts expected across the interior.
Impact-based warnings
A Yellow Level 2 warning for damaging coastal winds leading to localised disruption to beachfront activities is expected between Cape Point and Cape Agulhas in the morning.
In the SAWS’s colour-coded weather warning system, yellow indicates a moderate risk of impact that requires caution and awareness, while orange indicates that a higher-risk impact is expected, requiring increased attention and preparation.
SAWS uses the numbers to indicate the likelihood of weather-based impacts occurring. Levels 2 and 6 are high, and Level 4 is low.
