SA National Weather Warnings: 25 April 2012 04h00 SAST
Current warning: Western Cape
SAWDOS: The SAWS forecast gale force winds on their map image but if you click for further detail on the provided link they reflect no warnings for the Western Cape. Once again they succeed in confusing the public and also to issue incorrect weather warnings. The SAWDOS complained about incorrect weather warnings in the past, but still they persist to use the current software and format. Surely the time has now arrived for the SAWS Management to address this issue once and for all. This is really bad service by the SAWS and maybe the time has arrived to lodge a formal complaint to Parliament.
