City of Cape Town officials report severe weather causing widespread flooding, fallen trees, power and water outages, damaged traffic lights, and roofs blown off, with emergency teams responding to multiple incidents citywide.

Attached photos show city workers in rain gear assisting a partially submerged white car under a bridge, clearing street drains amid heavy rain and leaves, cutting a large fallen tree near homes, and responding to a house with collapsed corrugated roofing.

The City urges residents to drive cautiously, avoid flooded areas and downed power lines, report issues via the City app or emergency number, and remain patient as crews work around the clock.
