"Firenado" is actually "Fire Whirl" The Garden Route has again been ravaged by wildfires that destroyed about 86 000 hectares. This is 4 times more than the 2017 Knysna fires. Above, you can see what is described as a "firenado" which is more accurately described as a "fire whirl". This happened in the De Vlugt area, 55km from Plett. According to South African Weather Service chief forecaster, Kevin Rae, this happens when: "Surface air rushes in, to replace air which is ascending very rapidly at the site of the fire. This sudden accumulation of air at the base of the fire tends to feed it further, increasing the intensity of the fire. One typically ends up with a very dramatic-looking column of rising air and flames, twisted into a helical (helix-shaped) column."

A unique eco estate with only 14 erven. This estate will be access controlled, with architectural guidelines for buildings to ensure harmony with design and aesthetics. Overlooking one of Plett's most beautiful stretches of coast, this is a unique opportunity not to be missed. Price includes VAT. No Transfer Duty. To live here is to own a part of Plett’s history! This stand forms part of the original site where, in 1630, the crew of the stricken Sao Gonçalo arrived on shore and set up base camp whilst salvaging what they could from their ship that had been smashed on the rocks of the Robberg Peninsula during a vicious storm. They re-build ships to take them home to India and Portugal. Risking life and limb, they left this paradise behind them to try and reach home. The sands of time covered the wreckage and now, nearly four centuries later, you have an opportunity to purchase a part of land where history was made! Take a look at the comparable sales, and you will be delighted to find that this is an out-and-out bargain. |
