Capetonians can continue to rejoice as dams levels show no signs of slowing down, and have increased once again this week to 72.7%.
Last year this time, dam levels were at a shocking 37.5% an astonishing 35% lower than their current standing.
Locals are celebrating all over the Western Cape as bountiful rains have brought us some piece of mind as our dams are steadily replenished.

Was netnou by die Markstraat keerwal in die #Bergrivier, #Paarl. Loop redelik sterk, as meer water oorloop by die damme sal dit dalk sterker vloei, die reen hierdie week was bietjie minder as die vorige keer.?
