Chilly weather finally gives way as Cape Town welcomes sunny skies and warmer temperatures this weekend

If you’ve spent the week bundled up and dodging rain puddles around Cape Town, here’s some good news—clear skies and warmer days are finally on the way.

After a stretch of damp and chilly weather, the Mother City is about to ease into a much more comfortable forecast.


Friday Starts Off Cool, But the Sunshine’s Coming

Let’s be real—Friday is still going to feel a little cold.

Expect the temperature to top out at around 15°C.

It might be a good idea to keep that extra layer on if you’re heading out.

But don’t worry, this is just the tail end of the wintery feel, because the weekend is shaping up nicely.


Saturday Brings a Warmer Breeze and a Clear Sky

By Saturday, things will start to feel a lot more pleasant.

The early morning might still carry a bite of cold, but as the day rolls on, you’ll see temps rise to around 18°C.

The best part?

Clear skies and almost no wind—perfect for a laid-back day outdoors or a seaside stroll.


Sunday’s the Star of the Show

Looking to spend Sunday soaking up the sunshine?

You’re in luck.

The forecast promises a warm and calm day, with temperatures climbing up to a lovely 20°C.

With hardly a breeze in the air and blue skies overhead, it might just be the perfect day to brunch outside or hit the beach.


A Pleasant Stretch Ahead Before the Chill Returns

The good vibes don’t stop there. Next week looks to be a continuation of this mild and mellow weather pattern.

But don’t pack away your sweaters just yet—things could start to cool down again by next weekend.

Enjoy it while it lasts!


Beyond Cape Town: Nearby Towns Also Enjoying the Sunshine

If you’re planning a little road trip or weekend escape, spots like Langebaan and Hermanus will also be basking in similarly nice weather.

And if you’re heading to Paarl?

It’s getting even toastier, with highs expected to reach 26°C.

Now that’s more like it!
