By

With this long weekends SAWS (South African Weather Services) forecasted gale force winds and rough sea conditions at places around the Western and Eastern Cape coastlines, and extending beyond, NSRI are appealing to seafarers and public members to be cautious.

In Places, affecting inland rivers, dams and waterways, SAWS are forecasting heavy rainfall and areas may experience flooding.

We are appealing to the public to follow SAWS weather warnings and updated weather forecasts.

Don’t deliberately get into harms way.

While some areas appear not be affected, those in affected areas NSRI are appealing for safety.
Stay inside. Don’t drive. Don’t launch to go to sea unless you absolutely have to. Be cautious and be safety minded.

Watch out for each other.

Seafarers should wear life their jackets while at sea and we appeal to coastal hikers, shoreline anglers, paddlers, sailboarders, surfers and bathers to rather stay away from rough seas and be safety conscious.
