The downpour that hit the Mother City on Tuesday took a toll on some roadways and homes in the Cape.
The City received a number of complaints of flooding from various areas, roads were badly flooded and emergency units needed to stay active overnight to ensure the safety of locals.
Localised flooding occurred in informal areas across the metropole including Makhaza, Khayelitsha, Langa, Philippi, Gugulethu and Imizamo Yethu in Hout Bay.
Formal areas affected include Athlone, Gateville, Diep River, and Wallacedene.
In Manenberg, the canal in Silverstream Road overflowed, leading to a number of houses being flooded.
Various City departments are making assessments and will continue the mop-up operations that have been ongoing in the Western Cape since yesterday.
