Tunisia temperatures rise above seasonal norms
Meteorologists forecast warmer weather across North Africa, with Tunisia expecting highs up to 28°C.
Tunisia is experiencing an unusual temperature increase as winter approaches, with thermometers set to rise above seasonal averages across the country. Mehrez Ghannouchi from the National Institute of Meteorology reported on Wednesday, November 4, that this warming trend will affect all Tunisian regions and several other North African nations.
In Tunis, maximum temperatures are predicted to reach 25°C on Friday, November 6, climbing to 26°C on Monday and peaking at 28°C by Tuesday and Wednesday, November 10 and 11. These warmer days will be accompanied by cooler nights, with minimum temperatures ranging from 14°C to 17°C.
Seasonal forecasts for November to January 2026-2027 indicate generally higher temperatures than usual for Tunisia. The institute also anticipates below-average rainfall, particularly in the northern and central regions, a trend that warrants attention as the winter period is important for water resources and agricultural activities.
