Last updated: Thursday 24 September 2026, 19:10 SAST – the warnings and advisories below were refreshed after SAWS issued a new high-level alert.
This weekend brings a gentle, cool start across Limpopo before things ease up a bit. In Polokwane, Saturday stays on the cooler side at 13 to 20 degrees with a spot of light rain, then Sunday warms slightly to 13 to 22 degrees and turns partly cloudy. Tzaneen and Thohoyandou can also expect some slight rain on both days, sitting comfortably in the low to mid twenties, while Musina stays warmer and cloudy at 27 to 28 degrees.
Keep a light jacket handy if you are out and about in Polokwane or Tzaneen, since a few showers may pass through. Do take note of the veld fire conditions flagged for Blouberg, Alldays and Lephalale, so be extra careful with any open flames in those drier parts. Enjoy the weekend.
