The Newcastle Advertiser says what is believed to be the beginning of a tornado was spotted just before 4pm over the Newcastle CBD.
Locals who spoke to Newswatch say there was a heavy storm in the area.
However, they say it was much smaller in size compared to the recent Vryheid tornado.
Pictures taken by residents show a dark swirl in the clouds - supposedly a twister forming.
A resident from the town has explained what he experienced to Newswatch.
"There was heavy rain in Newcastle but fortunately we didn't experience anything that could be related to a tornado. I have spoken to people around me, I have spoken to people who stay around Amajuba - none of them experienced a tornado," he said.
