Detailed Breakdown of Gauteng Weather Today
Johannesburg
In Johannesburg, early risers can expect temperatures around 8°C with clear skies. As the day progresses, the thermometer will rise to a comfortable 20°C by noon, when many will seize the opportunity to enjoy the warmth outside. The evening will bring a slight chill, with temperatures dipping back down to 15°C, making it advisable to wear a light jacket if planning to be out after sunset.
Pretoria
Pretoria ushers in a similar pattern, starting the day at 7°C under sunny skies. By early afternoon, residents will be basking in a pleasant 19°C, ideal for lunch in the park or errands without the heavy winter clothing typically required. As night falls, temperatures will cool to 14°C, so a light sweater might be necessary for those evening outings.
