Western Cape - #CapeStorm Strong Winds hit the Apple farms in Grabouw
Bringing the science to the global stage! 🌊🔬 SAWS's Dr. Ramontsheng Rapolaki & Dr. Nosipho Zwane are at the G20 Climate and Environment Sustainability Working Group Meeting (CTICC) sharing critical expertise on Marine Research and the latest Climate Change data.
The South African Weather Service has forecast a sharp drop in temperatures across eight provinces—excluding Limpopo—and it’s already taking effect in the Eastern Cape. Barkly East is among the hardest hit, with sub-zero temperatures and snowfall expected overnight. #Newzroom405’s @yemavumisa reports from the ground on how residents and farmers are preparing for the icy conditions.
Highlights from the #Ocean20 outreach in Mbombela Dr Ramontsheng Rapolaki presented on how oceans significantly influence extreme weather events in Mbombela. An understanding of these connections is crucial for effective weather prediction & disaster preparedness.#G20SouthAfrica
In 2024, the average global sea level reached its highest point since satellite measurements began in 1993. Full #StateOfClimate report: wmo.int/publication-se…
On March 1, Antarctic sea ice reached its smallest coverage of the year. This year’s minimum extent tied 2022 and 2024 for the second-lowest summer sea ice area observed since satellite records began in 1979. Learn more: climate.gov/news-features/…
