McGregor's Weather
McGregor borders on the Little Karoo
, and the climate can best be described as "comfortable".Summer days are pleasantly warm although the month of February can be seriously hot. The South Easterly gales which blow in Cape Town in summer are practically non-existent here, but a comparatively light wind blows for a few hours in the afternoons, which helps to keep the village cool.
The winters are short and as the annual rainfall is only about 200mm, they are comparatively dry. There is no air pollution, and at night those who are romantic can enjoy a sight seldom seen by city-dwellers - a star-filled sky.
The South African Weather Service
have some excellent maps and forecast tables for the area which are well worth checking out.
Yr.No - the Norwegian Meteorological Institute
provide our main weather feed. Why the Norwegians, it's a long way from home? Well, we took advice on obtaining the most reliable reports from those who most need to know - the local farming community!
