Police and disaster management services say Cyclone Irina remains a threat to the KwaZulu-Natal coast.
The National Joint Operational Centre says the weather system is likely to remain over open water between
Maputo and Richards Bay for the next 24 hours.
A combination of very rough seas, marine storm surge, as well as gale-force winds are likely to threaten the coastline during this time.
However, the likelihood of further heavy rain was diminishing.
Hundreds of people were displaced from low-lying areas at the weekend.
At least one person was killed as a direct result of the floods and a 56-year-old woman broke both her legs and fractured her pelvis when a wall of her house collapsed on her.
