Cape Town - the bigger of the two cold fronts is arriving this morning - leave early and drive safely #Ventusky #ColdFront

@VoxWeatherZa The Cape Town city council has been suspiciously quiet about us saving water. I wonder why? 🤔 🌧️ ☔<sarcasm>

🚨⚠️ The SECOND of 2 cold fronts arrives this MONDAY. Accumulated rainfall totals of 100–200 mm are likely by TUESDAY EVENING, with some areas shown in BLACK on the RAINFALL ACCUMULATION MAP possibly receiving 200–300 mm.

@worldranking_ I hope he didn't work for Spirit. 🍌

@BrentLindeque @GoodThingsGuy Love you too. You're the best thing that ever happened to us. Mental health is important. Do a David Attenborough - live to 100, dispensing Good News as you go. Talking about that, Google 'David Attenborough' and see what Google has done. 👏

It’s been a year. A whole year at eNCA. Ja, a year ago I signed my contract. And a week later, I set my alarm for 5am on a Friday to make it to studio on time. To share our good things with a new audience. 11 years ago, I started @GoodThingsGuy. Some people thought I was nuts. “Good news doesn’t sell... it will never work.” And then it did. And others followed suit. You can now find good news in most publications. Some have even created their own good news sections. But that didn’t exist before. Mainstream media rarely covered good news unless it was something trending. Now they look for it. And sometimes even look to us to find it. We have MANY journalists subscribed to our weekly newsletter. I see your email addresses. And it makes me smile. A couple of years ago, a university student sent me their MBA dissertation on Good Things Guy, unpacking how we had changed the media landscape in South Africa. How we were the little butterfly flap that caused a tornado. Listen, when I got that email and read their 20,000-word thesis, I cried. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that I would be some sort of “Chaos Theory” for good news. Funny thing is my first company I started was called Chaos Theory. Andrew sold his massive company to an even bigger global company to take over Chaos Theory when Good Things Guy started to take over my life. When it became bigger than me. I digress. Jammer. I love that Good Things Guy has made people realise how important good news is. Especially in mainstream media. We need balance. And I love that other publications are leaning into this. I think it’s so important. You don’t need to visit us to get your good news. It’s all around. It’s where you are. It’s where you find your news. Even in your own communities. Good things are happening all the time. I started Good Things Guy with a simple mission: Share 1 good news story with South Africa every day. We now share 20 articles a day. This week, on Thursday, we shared 29. New record. And you can find us on our platform. Or on our socials. Or on all the mall screens around the country. Or at all the Sasols and BPs (in the forecourts, look at the screens). Or on 947, 702, Cape Talk, Die Groot Ontbyt. Or on my poddie. And for the last year… also on eNCA. A whole year. I am humbled. And deeply grateful. Oh, what a life. So many good things. Okay. Love you. Bye.

@AP According to him, they were not sure if the crocodile was dead. Imagine the crocodile waking up and seeing feet just above him. 🐊 😮

A South African police officer was lowered alone into a "crocodile-infested river" in a daring effort to recover human remains. The euthanized crocodile was safely lifted and relocated, enabling professional teams to recover the remains of the suspected missing person.

@disclosetv They started it, they can damn well finish it.

@DJSnM We females feel for Christina.

Does anyone know if there’s any data on how to model the dispersion of urine dumps. Trying to figure out if a well timed emission could reach the moon.

@CityofCTAlerts Is there a water outage at 96 Alexandra Street Parow? This is a block of 6 flats and we have had no water since 1pm today.

@volcaholic1 Flammable cladding? Has nobody learned their Grenfell Tower lesson?

A major fire broke out today at the Giant shopping center on Moskovsky Prospekt in Kaliningrad, Russia, spreading quickly as winds blew burning cladding onto the road. Emergency and Health Ministry forces were mobilized, and all visitors were evacuated safely, including from the cinema, where movies were showing at the time. Three people were injured, including one with a broken leg. Authorities later revealed that the fire originated near the entrance.

@worldranking_ An image search finds only one post on Facebook which was carried word for word by other people on Facebook. No major news service picked up on it, which makes me believe that the original post may have been fake.
