Paramedics were kept busy after several incidents were reported due to flooded roads and homes, strong winds and lightning.
The storm - which affected most parts of KZN - left dozens homeless and claimed the lives of at least four people in the eThekwini area.
In Westville, a man died while his wife was seriously injured after a wall collapsed in his home.
Photographs of the flooded Greyville racecourse, the Pavilion and Westville Mall were shared on social media.
The South African Weather Service says the general forecast for this week is a 30% chance of stormy conditions with one or two expected in parts of the province.
