A gradual increase in temperatures is expected across Morocco beginning Friday, July 25, particularly in the northern and central plains, according to the General Directorate of Meteorology (DGM).
Houcine Youabed, head of communications at the DGM, told Le Matin that this heatwave may coincide with precipitation along the Mediterranean coast and renewed thunderstorm activity over the Atlas Mountains.
Hot to very hot conditions are forecast for Wednesday and Thursday, especially over the Atlas reliefs, where slight atmospheric instability is anticipated.
For today’s forecast, the DGM expects stormy showers, possibly accompanied by hail and gusty winds, over the Middle and Northern High Atlas as well as the eastern highlands. Hot conditions will persist in the southeast and Saharan provinces, while mist and light coastal drizzle are likely between Sidi Ifni and Tarfaya.
The warning comes amid heightened concerns following 2024, which was officially declared Morocco’s hottest year on record.
