Any word on fordsburg?

My geographic knowledge of anything other than the East Rand is poor
But I think Fordsburg is JHB South ?

if so

then rain only

the worst of the storm is from the Krugersdorp area, right over Lanseria airport, and moving NE towards the western portions of PTA, and onwards towards Brits, if I interpolate the radar image

Thanks. Looks like not here then. BTW fordsburg is pretty much just on the the outskirts of CBD.

update (still cannot upload an image)

but

the big red core (with spots of grey) on the DbZ scale is now midway between Lanseria and Hartebeespoortdam.

It seems to be swinging slighlty northwards, instead of going towards the cbd of PTA

I see the roof at the Key West Mall collapsed due to the volume of hail

Hey guys. We were also unfortunately in muldersdrift yesterday afternoon for a wedding. That 5er belongs to the bride's father. I lost count as to how many cars had cracked and broken windows and lights. I've never seen a storm like that before- heavy hail for a good 30minutes.
