Morocco has a subtropical climate, tempered by oceanic influences that give the coastal cities moderate temperatures. Toward the interior, winters are colder and summers warmer. At high altitudes temperatures of less than -17.8° C (0° F) are not uncommon, and mountain peaks are covered with snow during most of the year.
As far as the weather goes, it will be better to visit the south and the desert routes outside midsummer, when for the most of the day it's far too hot for casual exploration, especially if you're dependant on public transport. But July and August, the hottest months, can be wonderful on the coast, while in the mountains there are no set rules.
Spring, which comes late by European standards (around April to May), is perhaps the best overall time, with a summer climate in the south and in the mountains, as well as on the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts. Winter can be perfect by day, in the south, though be warned that the nights are extremely cold.
