A market has been completely destroyed by flooding.

At least 37 people have died in Morocco following heavy rainfall and flooding. The coastal province of Safi, south-west of Casablanca, was particularly affected.

Photos and videos from the region show large areas of residential neighbourhoods flooded, houses and shops underwater, and cars swept away by the floods.

Rescue workers were in constant action, rescuing survivors from the floodwaters and continuing to search for missing persons.

New floods loom

A low-pressure system over Spain is bringing heavy rainfall to Morocco once again. This is likely to cause further flooding.

By Wednesday, more than 50 mm per square metre is possible, especially in the north-west of the country. In some parts of the Atlas Mountains, up to 100 mm is possible. Snow is falling at higher altitudes.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
