Morocco’s General Directorate of Meteorology said Friday will bring widespread rain, thunderstorms and strong winds across several regions of the country.
Rain and occasionally thundery showers are forecast for Tangier, Loukkos, the Rif, the Gharb plain and the Saiss region. Additional rainfall is expected over the High and Middle Atlas mountains and nearby western plains, while cloudy skies with rain will affect Atlantic coastal plains north of Essaouira.
Light, scattered showers are also possible in the Souss region and northwestern parts of the southern provinces. Snowfall is forecast in the Atlas Mountains above 1,600 meters (5,250 feet) and in the Rif above 1,400 meters (4,600 feet). Moderately strong to strong winds are expected in northern and central areas and across the southern provinces.
Overnight temperatures are forecast to range from minus 3 to 5 degrees Celsius (27 to 41 Fahrenheit) in the Atlas Mountains, 3 to 7 degrees in the Rif and high plateaus, 14 to 17 degrees along the coasts, and 10 to 14 degrees elsewhere.
Sea conditions will range from slight to rough in the Mediterranean, rough to very rough in the Strait of Gibraltar, locally rough to strong east of the strait, and strong to very strong between Cape Spartel and Tan-Tan. Seas will be slight to rough between Tarfaya and Laayoune and rough to strong along the remaining coasts.
