About Meknès Weather
Meknès, at 33.9° north in Morocco, has a hot desert climate characterised by extreme summer heat and very low annual rainfall — typically under 100 mm per year. Daytime temperatures between May and September regularly exceed 40°C (104°F), while the mild season (October – April) brings warm, pleasant days of 15–28°C (59–82°F) that attract the majority of visitors. The sky is clear for most of the year; when rain does fall, it tends to arrive as brief, intense events. Dust and sandstorms are a seasonal hazard, particularly in spring when wind patterns shift.
