The City of Cape Town has placed disaster response teams and other public safety authorities on high-alert for another possible flood event this evening at 18H00 during high tide. During the early hours of this morning whilst most holidaymakers were asleep tidal waters flooded camping sites at Ganzekraal on the West Coast, Silwerstroomstrand Beach near Mamre and Atlantis as well as the coastline between Melkbosstrand until Milnerton Lagoon on the Atlantic Seaboard. Chalets at the Kleinbaai Resort near Melkbosstrand were under water and stagnant water was visible in the recreational areas. Coastal roads between Hout Bay, Kalk Bay, Muizenberg, Strandfontein, Gordon’s Bay and Strand along the False Bay coastline were also flooded.
