Garden Route Disaster Management Chief Gerhard Otto has highlighted that inclement weather in the Western Cape has forced them to close down schools during the examination period.
He emphasises that they are still waiting for the emergency shelter equipment to repair the 684 households damaged by the storm.
In Klip River, a man and a woman tried to cross the swollen Klip River late on Thursday. Both were swept away. Emergency Medical Services reported that they had rescued the woman, but the man died.
