The SAWDOS would like to thank all the members of public, radio amateurs, the media and real time observers who send photos, weather station data, info and reports this past few days to the SAWDOS. With the information received we could track the first cold front and also heavy rainfall and flashflooding in Port Elizabeth.
The SAWDOS would also like to personally thank the following organizations:
1. TrafficSA
2. HAMNET
3. RSG Radio
4. AlgoaFM
5. Matroosberg Private Nature Reserve
6. SAWDOS Twitter Users
7. S.A.L.T. - Sutherland
8. ER24
9. Netcare911
10. Emergency Services
11. SAWDOS Facebook Friends
12. NSRI
13. All other roll players not mentioned here
The SAWDOS were inundated with information via Email, SMS, Facebook and Twitter and thereby receiving first hand information as the situation unfolded. This severe weather event demonstrated the fact that when disaster strikes South Africans all come together to assist wherever they can.
The SAWDIS is really overwhelmed by the response that it received. This response make it all the worth while to spend hours on end informing and posting information and images on the SAWDOS Blog, SAWDOS Facebook Group and SAWDOS Twitter. Once again thank you for the support and service. The SAWDOS is looking forward to your continued support. With your help we can render a free service to the public and hopefully contribute to save and better the lives of those in need.
Once again a big thank you to all!!
