A rare deluge in the Sahara desert brought unprecedented rainfall to southeastern Morocco, exceeding yearly averages in just two days. Areas like Tata and Tagounite experienced significant rainfall, with Tagounite recording over 3.9 inches in 24 hours. The storms filled Lake Iriqui, dry for 50 years, and created striking images of water in the desert. This rare event, termed an extratropical storm, may alter regional weather patterns by increasing moisture and storm activity. The rainfall could help replenish groundwater aquifers and reservoirs, though its long-term impact on drought remains uncertain.
