SAWS has issued a Level 4 weather warning for disruptive rainfall and a Level 5 warning for damaging waves:
These weather conditions have the potential to cause localised flooding and may pose risks to property and infrastructure.
Ensure that all drainage systems, gutters and downpipes are clear from any debris or blockages. This will help facilitate the smooth flow of rainwater away from properties. Sandbags can be effective in diverting water flow away from vulnerable areas. Residents in flood-prone regions are encouraged to prepare sandbags in advance to protect their properties.
Inform local authorities about blocked drains, intakes and incidents of illegal dumping. Illegal dumping in stormwater canals and sewers exacerbates the risk of flooding during heavy rainfall.
