9000 people from 2500 informal settlements have been severely affected by the floods in the last week.  The City Of Cape Town's Disaster Management Centre has provided emergency shelters for affected communities.  If you are able to assist, schools, supermarkets and non-profit organisations are collecting food, clothes, blankets and monies to assist the unfortunate people who have been displaced by the floods.  

The good news is that the SA Weather Service has pledged that the weather is set to improve as from tomorrow.  We are expecting sunny weather for tomorrow and Friday.

If you have an emergency related to the weather, or any other emergency that the City Of Cape Town's Disaster Risk Management Centre can help you with, dial 107 from Telkom lines or  021 480 7700 from cellphones to get through to this service.  Report flooding, blocked drains and service interruptions to the City's all-hours Technical Operations Centre at  0860 103 054
