Rabat – Morocco is forecasted to experience a mix of stable coastal weather and intense inland heat this week, according to the General Directorate of Meteorology.
While cooler, foggy mornings are expected along the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts due to the influence of the Azores High, inland and southeastern regions will face soaring temperatures, scattered thunderstorms, and dusty winds under the effect of the Saharan Heat Low.
Temperatures are expected to reach between 37°C and 43°C, especially in the southeast and far southern parts of Morocco, particularly on Monday and Tuesday.
While the high-pressure system will keep the coasts calm, it will also allow hot and unstable air to move toward the mountains.
This could lead to the formation of unstable cumulonimbus clouds, with scattered thunderstorms likely in the afternoons and evenings over the High and Middle Atlas mountains, the Rif region, and the southern part of eastern Morocco. Strong winds may also blow in the southeast and desert areas, raising dust.
On Monday, temperatures will range from 37°C to 43°C in the southeast and far south, 23°C to 29°C in the Atlas, Rif, and along the coasts, and 30°C to 36°C in other regions.
Hot weather will continue on Tuesday in Tadla, Rehamna, the east, the southeast, and the eastern southern provinces.
Temperatures will rise slightly in the southeast and inland plains, with a noticeable increase in the southern provinces.
The weather will remain hot to very hot in the southeast, eastern southern provinces, the east, southern Rif, inland plains, and western Atlas on Wednesday.
Finally, a rise in temperatures is expected next Monday, as the Saharan Heat Low becomes stronger.
