Morocco will experience hot weather and potential dust storms on July 7, 2026, according to the Direction générale de la météorologie. High temperatures of up to 32°C are expected in the Souss and the plains west of the Atlas, while moderate to strong winds may trigger dust-carrying gusts in southern provinces.
Where will temperatures be the highest?
The Direction générale de la météorologie reports that heat will dominate the Saharan provinces, the South-East, and the northern and central plains. This includes the Saiss, Oulmès, and the interior of the Souss region.
Specific temperature forecasts for July 7, 2026, include:
- 25°C to 32°C: The plains west of the Atlas, Chiadma, the Souss, the Phosphate and Oulmès plateaus, the Tadla and Rehamna plains, the South-East, and the interior of the Saharan provinces.
- 18°C to 25°C: Other regions across the country.
Diurnal temperatures are expected to rise near the Tangier region and along the southern and central coasts. In other areas, temperatures will remain stable or see a slight decrease, according to the official forecast.
What wind and sea conditions are expected?
Wind activity will be a primary concern for those in the south. The Direction générale de la météorologie warns of moderate to fairly strong wind gusts in the southern provinces. These gusts may cause “chasse-poussières” (dust storms) in certain areas.
Coastal conditions vary significantly depending on the location. The Mediterranean sea is expected to remain “belle” (good/calm). In the Strait, between Cap Spartel and Casablanca, and between Agadir and Aglou, conditions will range from good to slightly agitated. Elsewhere, the sea is forecasted to be slightly agitated to agitated.
Coastal visibility and fog
Travelers near the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts should prepare for morning and nighttime cloud cover. The meteorological service notes that these low clouds may result in the formation of mist or drizzle.
