Why Is It Cold In Parts Of Sa?

Meteorologist Azwi Tuwani says the cold snap experienced in parts of the country is caused by clouds covering the systems, that are moving along the coastal areas and pushing in cooler air to the interior.

Gauteng, Free State and the Eastern Cape have been experiencing cooler weather conditions this week.

Today, Johannesburg's maximum temperatures are predicted to at 22 Degrees Celsius.

Tuwani says, "It was cooler and there was some wind blowing, also blowing that cooler air in the interior, so that cooler air is coming from the oceans and entering the interior of South Africa."

He says, "It is normal for it to happen whenever we have cloud covering during the day it doesn't get as hot, the temperatures will be cooler or remain warm but not hot."
