The Weather Service says severe thunderstorms are also expected in the Free State, Gauteng, North West and Mpumalanga.

Forecaster Lehlohonolo Thobela said disruptive rain is expected along the coastal areas.

"From the seasonal forecast it was suggesting that the East Coast as well as the southeastern parts of the country are expecting above normal rain for this coming season, especially late spring into summer," he said.
