Morocco Weather is characterized by consistent aridity. In spite of the land having dry weather features, it is the occasional spells of rain which offer some relief to the inhabitants by reducing the intensely hot temperature. Overall, the Morocco Weather is stable in nature and within the tolerance of the countrymen.

As far as the Weather in Morocco is concerned, it is preferable for people to visit the southern regions and the hot desert areas all through the year, except during the midsummer. This is mainly due to the fact that both these regions are intensely heated up during daytimes and are unsuitable for casual visits or explorations. Moreover, the public transports required to reach the places also get equally heated up in course of the journey, hence appear to be like furnaces to the travelers seated within.

Morocco Climate

The arid Morocco Climate witnesses substantial temperature variations in different localities, during seasonal changes. While the southern and the southeastern desert areas of the country experience scorching heat, the highland regions have cool summers and icy winters. More or less, the climate of Morocco can be described as sub-tropical and moderate in nature, with cool sea breezes blowing from the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea and reducing the land temperatures. This area, along with the Rif Mountains in north Morocco receives moderately heavy rainfall, ranging between 200 mm or 8 inches to 400 mm or 16 inches to north of Casablanca. The annual average land temperature throughout the year varies between 66 F to 71 F.

Overall, the moderate Weather and Climatic Conditions in Morocco have made travelers feel comfortable in visiting the country in early summers, having pleasant temperatures.
