On Sunday night, a cold front swept over the country, dropping temperatures to the negatives in some parts, allowing snow to buffet down and surprise people the next day.
Former Italian Prime Minister dies, Golden Globes gets sold, China to help SA Police with crime scourge, and Treasury releases draft rules of 2-pot retirement system.
People are having a blast with the snow in the Western Cape, like these snowboarders who made the most of the slopes in superb fashion.
A cold front had led to parts of the country being blanketed by fluffy white snow. Some of the drone footage is quite mesmerising.
It was rather frosty around these parts over the weekend, although many in the Eastern Cape and KZN regions really had to bust out the extra blankets.
