Morocco is bracing for another day of intense heat across much of the country on Sunday, according to the Directorate General of Meteorology. The Eastern region, Moulouya Valley, Saiss, Tadla plains, the Southeast, and the Sahara provinces are all expected to experience high temperatures.

Along the Atlantic coast, residents can anticipate dense low clouds and fog. Meanwhile, the Middle and High Atlas mountains, along with the Eastern region, may see unstable clouds bringing scattered rain or localized thunderstorms.

Gusty winds are also forecast for the central coast and the Sahara provinces, with the potential for localized dust storms. Minimum temperatures will range from 22 to 28 degrees Celsius in the Southeast and far South, and 16 to 21 degrees elsewhere. Daytime temperatures are expected to rise across most of the kingdom.
