    However, most of the coastal belt and adjacent interior received between 10mm and 30mm. The Nelson Mandela Bay catchment, the the Langkloof, received between 10mm and 20mm.

    The wind reached a true gale force strength overnight with winds of 60km/h gusting 90km/h, said the Weather Service’s Garth Sampson.
