In an alert bulletin issued at an orange alert level, the Directorate explained that strong winds, ranging from 70 to 90 kilometers per hour, are expected along with dust storms from Friday at 4:00 a.m., until Saturday at 6:00 p.m.
The weather conditions are anticipated to occur in the regions of Fkih Ben Salah, Jerada, Nador, Al Hoceima, Driouch, Ksar El Kebir, Taourirt, Taza, Boulemane, Midelt, and Guelmim.
Similar weather conditions, with winds ranging from 70 to 85 kilometers per hour, are expected on Friday from noon until midnight in the regions of Asa-Zag, Sidi Ifni, and the coastal areas of the provinces of Chichaoua, Agadir-Ida-Ou Tanane, Tiznit, and Inezgane-Ait Melloul.
Residents in these areas are advised to take necessary precautions during this period, including securing loose objects, avoiding outdoor activities, and staying updated on weather forecasts.
The directorate issued a similar alert earlier this month for several Moroccan regions, including the northern city of Tangier which witnessed strong winds, causing considerable property damage.
A 29-year-old woman tragically lost her life in Tangier after parts of a residential building facade collapsed due to strong winds.
According to eyewitnesses, the victim was about to get into her car when a portion of the building facade fell on her, causing severe injuries that ultimately led to her death at the hospital.
