PE records wettest August in 14-years but dam levels remain low


Some light rain was recorded along the coastal belt and adjacent interior overnight.

The Weather Office says more rain is expected in places on Wednesday.

For the snow watchers, the anticipated snow this weekend will be more over the northern and northeastern regions of the Eastern Cape with a lesser chance over the Tsitsikamma area.

The Port Elizabeth Airport has already received 120.8 millimetres of rain this month, making it the wettest August since 2006.

In the catchment areas, Kareedouw has received 61.8 mm so far this month and Joubertina 55.2 mm.

The level of Nelson Mandela Bay’s main supply dams has also improved from below 17% a week ago to 18.24% according to the latest reading taken on Monday.
