Last updated: Monday 28 September 2026, 17:05 SAST – the warnings and advisories below were refreshed after SAWS issued a new high-level alert.
Kick off the working week on a high note, folks, because Monday the 21st brings clear skies and a lovely 31 degrees in Cape Town, with Stellenbosch and Paarl even warmer at 31 and 32. Enjoy it while it lasts, because Tuesday the 22nd turns unsettled with showers and thundershowers rolling through, and the mercury dips to around 27 in the Mother City. Stellenbosch and Paarl catch those thundershowers too, so keep an ear out for a rumble or two.
From Wednesday onwards things settle into cooler, cloudier days, hovering in the high teens to mid twenties, before rain showers return on Friday the 25th. George stays a touch milder through the week. Pack a light jacket and a brolly from midweek, and you will be sorted.
