Heavy rains across the country caused major damage, mainly in Agadir, with streets and infrastructure becoming submerged by waters.

Additionally, strong rain flooded a number of houses, causing material losses to the residents’ property and equipment.

The heavy rains stopped traffic and blocked the road linking Aourir and Agadir.

The region’s social media users said only 30 minutes of heavy rains resulted in destroying the infrastructure.

The area knew an ill-considered urban invasion, which worsened the situation even further.

The General Directorate of Meteorology stated that strong rain, sometimes thunder, snowfalls, and strong winds, will take place in different regions across the country starting Monday until Tuesday.

The directorate indicated, in a warning bulletin of a red alert level, that strong rain, sometimes thunderstorms (from 70 to 110 mm), will affect, Monday, from 1 p.m until Tuesday at 3 p.m, mainly the regions of Chefchaouen, and Al-Fahs- Anjara, Tetouan, M’diq-Fnideq, Driouch, and Nador.
