Morocco’s national meteorological service has issued an orange-level alert for a severe heatwave expected from Sunday through Tuesday, with temperatures forecast to range between 42 and 48 degrees Celsius in several regions.

According to the alert, extreme temperatures between 45 and 48°C will impact the provinces of Zagora, Tata, Assa-Zag, Smara, Boujdour, Oued Eddahab, and Aousserd.

In a separate bulletin, also orange-level, the weather service warned of hot weather ranging from 42 to 44°C on Sunday and Monday across Fquih Ben Salah, El Kelaa des Sraghna, and Marrakech.

The Directorate urged residents in affected areas to take necessary precautions, especially vulnerable populations, as heat-related risks increase sharply during such conditions.
