New Heatwave to Strike Morocco's Provinces Until Tuesday
Rabat — The General Directorate of Meteorology expects a heatwave to strike several Moroccan provinces, starting today until Tuesday. The weather office said extremely high temperatures will range between 45 and 48 degrees Celsius in provinces like Zagora, Tata, Assa-Zag, Es-Semara, Boujdour, Oued Ed-Dahab, and Aousserd. In another orange-level alert, the office also expects hot weather between 42 degrees and 44 degrees from Sunday to Monday in Fquih Ben Salah, Kalaa Sraghna, and Marrakech. Similar weather is usually normal in the summer season, especially in southern and central provinces. However, in recent days, Morocco's coastal provinces and cities like Rabat have witnessed a relief from the blistering heat, with breezy weather and temperatures between 25 and 27 degrees. This comes following a hot July, with temperatures recorded at over 35 degrees in provinces that usually have milder weather. Eldorado Weather website ranked three Moroccan cities — Ben Guerir, Kenitra, and Taroudant — among the world's hottest places on earth in June.

Heatwave Sweeps Across Morocco with Extreme Temperatures Forecast
Morocco is set to endure another wave of intense heat this week, with temperatures rising to dangerous levels in many parts of the country. The General Directorate of Meteorology (DGM) announced that the heatwave will stretch from Tuesday to Friday, placing several southern and central provinces under an orange alert. In the most affected areas, Errachidia, Zagora, Taroudant, Tata, Assa-Zag, Es-Semara, Oued Eddahab, and Aousserd, the thermometer is expected to hit between 44 and 47 degrees Celsius. For many residents, this level of heat makes daily routines nearly impossible. Families seek shade, farmers delay work, and entire neighborhoods appear still during the hottest hours of the day. Meanwhile, temperatures between 40 and 44 degrees are expected across a wider belt of the country, including parts of Beni Mellal, Fez, Marrakech, Agadir, Meknes, and Settat. This type of heat, which once seemed exceptional, has become more frequent over recent summers, raising concerns about climate patterns and water scarcity. The DGM has urged people in affected areas to drink plenty of water, avoid direct sun exposure, and remain indoors during peak afternoon hours. The warning comes as Morocco, like much of North Africa, faces increasingly harsh weather conditions that are putting pressure on daily life and natural resources. As the heatwave sets in, many are left wondering whether this is just another summer spike, or a sign of deeper changes already taking root.
