"South Africa Battling Massive 30-Foot Waves in Severe Weather"

Waves over 30 feet tall crashed into parts of the South Africa coastline, causing damage to vehicles and buildings. The high surf was generated by a strong storm in the Southern Ocean. This occurred during a time of high tides, exacerbating the damage. The affected area lies in the region known as the "Roaring Forties," characterized by strong winds and storms. At least two deaths and several injuries have been linked to the heavy surf.
