How it works
Every night we compare several forecast models for each part of Cape Town, then work out which days your washing will actually dry outside.
What it cannot do
This is a forecast, not a promise. Your own garden can differ from the area average, and Cape Town wind changes its mind quickly.
Why wind is not a problem
A normal southeaster dries washing faster, so we only count it against a day when it is strong enough to blow the washing off the line.
