In the last week of June swept a really uncomfortable Antarctic storm over our heads.
At wind speeds of up to 130 km / h we all had to work on the roof and set down cranes span the safe side of the building container. In the surrounding mountains is even snow have fallen.
To me, the spectacle to see live, I went on Wednesday evening extra to the Beach Road: riiiiießige waves lashed against the shore promenade, the sea foam was spread by the wind over the entire road and dirty my car ... :-)
was in the newspaper that the waves are usually average 3 meters high, on Wednesday, however, at the height of storms reaching 17 meters high waves whipped on the mainland (!).
Record:
-Large parts of Cape Town were without power (in most cases were the so-called "informal settlements", affected so the townships) and were partially flooded
-Die Titelseite der Cape Argus zierte ein beeindruckendes Foto einer Blechhütte, die der Sturm in einem Kapstädter Township weggeweht und auf dem Dach einer anderen Baracke hat landen lassen
-25 Film-Studenten waren auf der Dassen Insel gefangen
-zwei Tankschiffe, die vor der Bucht Kapstadts vor Anker lagen, trieben um ein Haar an den Bloubergstrand
-in Jacobs Bay, a Chinese cargo ship ran aground and two Schleeppfrachter demolished in Knysna and Jacobsbaai of the lines and found the same 
. Given the weather conditions it was decided to involve not the container but to leave the waves
and last but not least:
-our fence was knocked down in several places :-)
