Only in April had the worst flood disaster in several decades occurred in the province with the coastal city of Durban.
More than 440 people died and around 7,000 lost their homes.
The port of Durban, one of the largest on the continent, was also affected.
According to estimates, the damage to public infrastructure reached the equivalent of 1.5 billion euros.
The renewed floods are now likely to have damaged parts of the infrastructure that has just been repaired.
"This will delay reconstruction," said the province's prime minister, Sihle Zikalala.
The weather service had issued the highest alert level ten a few days earlier.
This time, the rains were concentrated on the coasts and the north-east of the province.
Scientists described the frequent extreme weather events as a result of climate change and called on the government, the private sector and communities to develop adaptation strategies as a matter of urgency.
The rains continued in the north-east of the province on Monday, but the weather service lifted the alarm level.
