Local know-how
A great braai day needs dry skies, manageable wind for fire control, and weather comfortable enough to stand around the fire in.
- ◆Wind matters more than temperature — gusts above 30 km/h make fire management miserable and risky.
- ◆A cool clear evening beats a hot gusty one. Check the evening window, not just midday.
- ◆If rain threatens, an earlier lunch braai often dodges afternoon thunderstorms on the Highveld.
