]]> What may look like a magical winter scene is causing real trouble on the ground. Motorists in KwaZulu-Natal have been warned to steer clear of snow-covered routes, as extreme weather conditions force the closure of major roads.

 

The N2 between Kokstad and Port Shepstone has been shut down completely due to heavy snowfall, making travel in the area dangerous and nearly impossible.

But it’s not just the snow—KZN officials are reporting fierce winds uprooting trees, heavy rainfall, and large waves crashing along the coast, creating a risky mix for anyone on the road.

 

Further inland, the R56 at Droewig has also been closed. This stretch runs between Kokstad and New Amalfi on the border of KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape.

 

In the Eastern Cape, Barkly East has been hit particularly hard, blanketed in thick snow, while parts of the Northern Cape and Free State are also shivering under icy conditions.

 

Authorities are urging everyone to stay safe, stay warm, and delay travel if possible as crews work to clear roads and monitor the evolving situation.
