The South African Weather Service issued a high fire danger warning for parts of the Northern Cape and Western Cape. There were also alerts for damaging winds in the Northern Cape and for heavy rain in the Eastern Cape. 

Impact-based warnings: 

A Yellow Level 1 warning for damaging winds that could result in a few transport routes being affected by difficult driving conditions. The blowing around of loose debris is expected over the central interior and the south-eastern parts of the Northern Cape.

Fire danger warnings: 

Extremely high fire danger conditions are expected over the Khai-Ma Municipality of the Northern Cape and the Beaufort West Municipality in the Western Cape.
