Did you know?
 

South Africa might feel drenched during summer storms, but it’s actually one of the driest countries on Earth — receiving less than half the world’s average rainfall each year. Most of our rain falls between October and March, with the Drakensberg Mountains getting the most and the Northern Cape the least. In fact, Alexander Bay can go months without a single drop! So next time you hear thunder, take a moment to appreciate it — every raindrop really does count in Mzansi.
