Cape Town is defined by the Cape Doctor — a strong, persistent southeasterly wind funneled by Table Mountain, most frequent and forceful in summer (December–February). Wind speed is the single biggest factor limiting flights here far more often than rain, which is more of a winter (June–August) concern.
