Authorities monitoring conditions between KZN and FS

HARRISMITH - Another cold front is expected to hit parts of KwaZulu-Natal, Free State and the Eastern Cape.

Last weekend, these provinces experienced extreme weather leaving travellers stuck on the N3 for hours.

Mphlakoana Mokoena from the Thabo Mofutsanyana District Municipality said measures have been put in place in case of any eventualities.

"I was monotoring the weather warnings and they didn't indicate that we are going to consider the snow. We did get a warning Level 2 for high-speed wind," he said.

In extreme cases, roads will be closed.
