The depression intensifies in the coming hours, and a heavy rainy night in the country

According to the latest outputs of the numerical models received, it is expected that the effect of the depression will intensify in the coming hours and during the evening and night hours of Wednesday / Thursday, as clouds increase and showers of rain fall on many coastal and inland areas, including the city of Rabat. It leads to the formation of torrents and the flow of valleys and reefs in a large way as a result of the abundance of rain.

On Thursday and Friday, the country continues to be affected by the depression, as the weather is cold and cloudy, with showers of rain falling at intervals. In parts of the country, showers are sometimes heavy, especially on Thursday.

The same weather system coincides with active to strong southwesterly winds blowing on the coasts, leading to remarkable sea turbulence, with the need to pay attention not to frequenting the coasts in such weather conditions.

It is not excluded that snow showers will fall over the high peaks of the Atlas Mountains, especially on Thursday / Friday night, and they will be accumulated in some peaks.

Important recommendations from the Arab weather:

• Be aware of the dangers of floods and rising water levels
• Staying away from the stomachs of valleys and slopes due to the high risk of running
• Avoid going to the beaches due to the severe turbulence in the waves
• Beware of the dangers of snowfall and its accumulation on some of the tall peaks of the Atlas Mountains
