WATCH: Second tornado hits Gauteng
Updated | By ECR Newswatch
Another tornado has descended on Gauteng today - this time near the OR Tambo International Airport.
This comes as a cold front and adverse weather conditions have swept across the country, with snow and heavy rains experienced in parts of KZN.
It has been reported the phenomenon - initially spotted on the R21 northeast of the airport - caused damage in the township of Tembisa.
As low temperatures persist, Durban is one of areas that have been worst-hit with at least three deaths reported in the flooding.
A massive tornado was also captured on camera in Magaliesburg yesterday - causing a frenzy on social media.
Motorists took to Twitter to share snippets of the sight.
