🇲🇦 Casablanca vs 🇺🇸 Grand Forks

Mediterranean — mild wet winters, hot dry summers, Atlantic influenced

Casablanca's Atlantic position gives it one of Morocco's most temperate climates — milder than Marrakech (no extreme desert heat) and more moderate than Tangier. The Atlantic breeze (chergi) moderates summer temperatures but can be cold and damp in winter.

Grand Forks on the Red River near the Canadian border has one of America's harshest climates. The 1997 flood devastated the downtown when the Red River set records — the entire city was evacuated. Since rebuilding, the city has created extensive flood protection while dealing with continental climate extremes as cold as -50°F in historic cold snaps.
