The General Directorate of Meteorology expects a significant rise in temperatures across southern and central Morocco and the northern inland plains starting Tuesday.

According to communication officer Hussein Youabed, this increase, attributed to the activity and expansion of the Saharan low-pressure system, will bring warm air masses from the Sahara, causing hot weather, particularly in the south, southeast, and central regions.

The DGM official told Hespress that temperatures are expected to exceed the seasonal average by 5 to 8 degrees, with highs between 37 and 42 degrees Celsius on Wednesday and Thursday.

The heat will persist into Friday and Saturday before gradually decreasing by the weekend, Youabed added.
