Provincial authorities have sounded a warning to residents, urging those in risk zones to evacuate.

The KwaZulu-Natal Provincial government said early on Sunday it is already conducing evacuation services in efforts to keep everyone safe during the downpour.

The authorities said the South African National Defense Force has deployed troops to help curb any loss of lives.
