Field notes
Mediterranean continental (interior Morocco) — meaningfully colder winters and hotter summers than the Atlantic coast (Casablanca/Rabat) because of the inland position. Winter (December–February, 10–12°C average) brings frequent rain and occasional snow on the surrounding mountains. Summer (June–August, 28°C average, peaks above 40°C) is brutally hot and dry. Spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) are the cleanest shoulder windows.
