A natural disaster is a serious adverse event caused by natural processes on Earth; examples include floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, storms, rain, hail, wildfires, waves, wind, snow, weather, and other geological processes.

The top of Sani Pass was white as far as the eye could see yesterday.

Sani Pass, KwaZulu-Natal’s entry point to its mountain kingdom neighbour, was open to traffic as far as people at the bottom were concerned.

However, Polo Tsoele, reservation manager at the Sani Mountain Lodge, which looks down on the pass, said not a single vehicle was seen, or heard grinding its way up the hairpin bends.

“The last vehicles on the way up came yesterday (Thursday) afternoon.”

She said it was “very, very, cold” but the local village was prepared for such weather and stocked up with necessities such as paraffin.

She believed there was no traffic from Mokhotlong, the closest town inside Lesotho, 54km away.
