Northern Morocco is set to experience a shift in weather early next week, with rain and cooler temperatures expected in several regions, according to the General Directorate of Meteorology. The weather change will be driven by a low-pressure system forming over northwestern Europe, which may extend its effects to Morocco’s northwest starting Monday.
Houcine Youabed, a spokesperson for the meteorological agency, said light rain is forecasted for Tangier, Loukous, Rif, and Gharb beginning Monday afternoon and continuing into Tuesday. “The Azores High will limit the impact of the low-pressure system, but dense clouds with light rain are expected in parts of the northern and northwestern regions,” Youabed told Hespress.
The forecast also indicates light rainfall may extend to the Rif, the Middle and High Atlas, the Mediterranean coastline, and parts of the eastern regions on Tuesday. Scattered rain could also reach the Phosphate Plateau, Oulmes, and plains between Casablanca and Safi.
Moderate winds are expected in the northwest, particularly in the Rif and Middle Atlas areas. Meanwhile, central and southern Morocco will see stable weather, with clear to partly cloudy skies and mild temperatures.
By midweek, another low-pressure system advancing toward southern Europe may bring additional rainfall to the Atlantic plains, the Rif, the Middle and High Atlas, the Mediterranean coastline, and the eastern regions. Snowfall is forecasted on mountain ranges starting Thursday, accompanied by further temperature drops and stronger winds in the northwest and coastal areas.
The weather agency advises residents to prepare for cooler and wetter conditions, particularly in northern and mountainous regions.
