Morocco can be roughly divided
into three climatic regions: the higher interior of the Rif and
Atlas mountain ranges, the coast, and the desert areas of the south.
Throughout the country, the temperature varies considerably
over the course of a day, and a sweater may be necessary even on
a summer evening, whilst winter temperatures can fall low enough
for frost and snow on the mountain tops. Rain does fall during the
winter, although not often and seldom in large amounts.
The coastal regions can be visited year-round; in
the winter they are pleasantly mild, and bask in mid-twenties celsius
temperatures in the summer.
The high interior can also be visited year-round,
although it does get cold in winter, with averages in the late teens
celsius.
The southern desert areas experience similar climate
to the high interior, although temperatures are hot, reaching an
average of up to 40ºC in summer.
