The Berber word for winter is Tagrest. It is a harsh season in the mountains, which begins with the period of the forty lyali, the coldest nights of the year.

The Moroccan climate is colder than one might think, and winter is a season that sees very low temperatures, heavy snowfall and isolated villages every year.
Moroccan winters are cold, with abundant snow in the mountains and a lot of dullness and rain on the northern coasts. You have to go down beyond Agadir to keep warm.
Winter in Morocco is not just about Agadir and its 300 days of sunshine. Everywhere in the mountains, it means heavy snowfalls and remote villages cut off for days or weeks at a time.
