Easy on the biblical references guys. Having lived in CT for 60 years, I can categorically confirm that we have had such weather for decades. It’s just rain, not a tornado or worse. Densification also adds to the slow run-off of excess wares so ultimately man-made problems

[@Africasideways]

Wise words, thanks.

[@petes9524]

I've been living in Cape Town for 70 years and I can assure you you're wrong.

[@jasondaniels640]

Yeah, anyone saying this is normal is not normal. But we can debate for a few more years and then it'll be undeniable.

@@jasondaniels640 40 years ago we were trying to cope with 1 to 2-weeks of ongoing and soft rain, trying to cope with not seeing much sun.

Definitely the wildest wind-and-rain episodes repeating at times over a few days, I have seen in 43-years of living in a Northern suburb near CT.

We used to have winters with soft rain for a week or two, about 40 to up to 20 or more(?) years ago... then the winter-rains started to come later, perhaps in June, with July and August being really cold with some snow. The last few years... we seem to get some days with stronger winds and harder downpours that causes flooding in some areas, but this winter we had the strongest and scariest wind and rain episodes, with more than one front spread over a few days/this past week, than I can ever remember in 43-years of living in one of the northern suburbs near Cape Town. Back to round-about 2015 (?) the dams would not fill up enough for a few years, so at the height of the drought we went to pray at the uncle Angus-meeting at Mitchells Plain in 2018 (March?). Later in the day, uncle Angus called for gangsters to come forward and slowly quite a few of them started walking, to the bottom of the stage, and more and more, a beautiful sight.
Also, catching us off-guard, at some stage during the afternoon while we were still standing there singing/praying (or sitting, perhaps), it started to rain very softly for about 15 minutes - that was such a surprise as there were only one or two clouds here and there, nothing much and well, it was a time of severe drought and we did NOT expect to have any rain. (That was surely a wonderful sign and a promise of more to come, as that was the winter that things turned around for the better concerning Cape Town's water shortages! I was also glad that I had an umbrella with me, as I usually do with outings on sunny days to protect my sun-sensitive skin :))
Lately I saw a video-testimony of a lady (on Patmosstudio) telling Amanda (one of the hosts), that one of the reasons for the drought was the violence and murders on the Cape Flats, and when the gangsters at the prayer-event came forward it was part of a spiritual breakthrough for Cape Town. (I can't remember her exact words now.) Well, from that winter of 2018 and onward, our dams started to get fuller every year.

Cape of Storms.
