Winter fades: Gauteng set for scorching post‑freeze temperatures
Residents endured a bitter season marked by freezing cold fronts, severe thunderstorms, howling winds and even flurries of snow.
Gauteng is set to experience warmer temperatures as winter fades, with Pretoria expected to peak at 28°C and Johannesburg at 27°C this week. After enduring a cold and stormy winter, residents can look forward to milder weather, with Joburg and Pretoria starting at 7°C and 13°C respectively on Thursday, before reaching higher temperatures.
While the rest of South Africa is forecast to enjoy fine and cool weather, the South African Weather Service has issued no warnings, but advises residents to take precautions against prolonged sun exposure due to high UVB levels in KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape.
