In Morocco’s southeastern desert, a rare downpour has brought lakes and ponds back to life, with locals — and tourists — hailing it as a gift from the heavens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Merzouga, an attractive tourist town some 600 kilometres (370 miles) southeast of the capital Rabat, the once-parched golden dunes are now dotted with replenished ponds and lakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u00a0We’re incredibly happy about the recent rains,\u00a0\u00bb said Youssef Ait Chiga, a local tour guide leading a group of German tourists to Yasmina Lake nestled amidst Merzouga’s dunes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Khalid Skandouli, another tour guide, said the rain has drawn even more visitors to the tourist area, now particularly eager to witness this odd transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With him, Laetitia Chevallier, a French tourist and regular visitor to the region, said the rainfall has proved a \u00ab\u00a0blessing from the sky\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u00a0The desert became green again, the animals have food again, and the plants and palm trees came back to life,\u00a0\u00bb she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Locals told AFP the basin had been barren for nearly 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year was Morocco’s driest in 80 years, with a 48 percent drop in rainfall, according to an October report from the General Directorate of Meteorology (DGM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But in September, torrential rains triggered floods in southern parts of Morocco, killing at least 28 people, according to authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rare heavy rains come as the North African kingdom grapples with its worst drought in nearly 40 years, threatening its economically crucial agriculture sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neighbouring Algeria saw similar rain and flooding in early September, killing six people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

North African countries currently rank among the world’s most water-stressed, according to the World Resources Institute, a non-profit research organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The kingdom’s meteorological agency described the recent massive rainfall as \u00ab\u00a0exceptional\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It attributed it to an unusual shift of the intertropical convergence zone — the equatorial region where winds from the northern and southern hemispheres meet, causing thunderstorms and heavy rainfall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– ‘Climate change’ –<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u00a0Everything suggests that this is a sign of climate change,\u00a0\u00bb Fatima Driouech, a Moroccan climate scientist, told AFP. \u00ab\u00a0But it’s too early to say definitively without thorough studies.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Driouech emphasised the importance of further research to attribute this event to broader climate trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts say climate change is making extreme weather events, such as storms and droughts, more frequent and intense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Morocco’s south, the rains have helped partially fill some reservoirs and replenish groundwater aquifers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But for those levels to significantly rise, experts say the rains would need to continue over a longer period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rest of the country is still grappling with drought, now in its sixth consecutive year, jeopardising the agricultural sector that employs over a third of Morocco’s workforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jean Marc Berhocoirigoin, a 68-year-old French tourist, said he was surprised to find Yasmina Lake replenished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u00a0I felt like a kid on Christmas morning,\u00a0\u00bb he said. \u00ab\u00a0I hadn’t seen these views for 15 years.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Water has also returned to other desert areas such as Erg Znaigui, about 40 kilometres south of Merzouga, AFP reporters saw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the rains have breathed life into Morocco’s arid southeast, Driouech warns that \u00ab\u00a0a single extreme event can’t bring lasting change\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But last week, Morocco’s meteorological agency said such downpours could become increasingly frequent, \u00ab\u00a0driven partly by climate change as the intertropical convergence zone shifts further north\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
