Soweto, Johannesburg, South Africa
About Soweto in January
Soweto's vast low-rise township fabric with minimal tree cover and extensive bare ground experiences wider diurnal temperature swings than the leafy northern suburbs — hotter by day in summer and more frost-prone in winter. Its position on the relatively flat southwestern Highveld plain leaves it exposed to cold southwesterly frontal winds in winter.
