Imilchil region, Midelt region, according to identical sources from citizens and authorities.
The same sources revealed that this storm which hit the region caused heavy losses to farmers, particularly in apple production, with a private car damaged.
But on the other hand, these storms led to the flooding of several valleys, including Oued Ziz, Gharis, Todghi, Oued Boumalne Dades, Kalaat Amkouna and Skoura… (Video of Oued Gharis)
These precipitations will contribute to improving the general condition of autumn crops and will also contribute positively to the development of the current agricultural campaign by improving plant cover, particularly pastures, by improving dam reserves and by recharging the water table.
It is worth noting that the General Directorate of Meteorology announced earlier that thunderstorms (15 to 25 mm), accompanied by hail and gusts of wind, will hit several regions of the Kingdom today, Friday.
The Directorate explained, in a bulletin carrying the same alert bulletin at the orange alert level, that these storms are expected in Ouarzazate and Azilal (from five fifteen in the evening until nine in the evening), as well as in the prefectures and provinces of Figuig, Boulmane, Errachidia, Midelt and Tinghir (from five fifteen in the evening until midnight).
