Rabat – A new weather alert forecasts thunderstorms in several provinces, especially in the south.
The General Directorate of Meteorology (DGM) forecasts rainfall ranging from 30 to 40 millimeters, with the weather alert remaining in effect today until 11 p.m.
The weather is expected to affect Tan-Tan, Tarfaya, Es-Semara, and Laayoune. It also concerns Aousserd, Oued Eddahab, and Boujdour.
Morocco has been experiencing cooler temperatures compared to September and earlier this month.
Temperatures across Morocco have started to decrease, ranging between 23 and 26 degrees Celsius in several regions, including Rabat.
Despite the noticeable drop in temperatures, the weather has remained relatively sunny, with occasional rainfall, mostly at night.
This means Morocco continues to face dry weather for October, aligning with the past several years, which have been marked by delayed rainfall.
Mid-November 2025 and early 2026 marked a breakthrough, however, as the country experienced heavy rainfall that revived its agricultural sector but also caused damage, with the country enduring deadly floods across several regions, including Safi.
Morocco, however, also described the rainfall as beneficial, marking an end to seven years of drought.
