The Turkish State Meteorological Service (MGM) issued a yellow alert for 45 provinces, warning of heavy rainfall and storms, and İzmir was also affected by the downpour in the early hours of the morning.
While overcast weather and intermittent light rain continued in the city, a giant waterspout was seen forming off the coast of Foça's Yenifoça neighborhood this morning.
The waterspout, which was filmed by citizens on their mobile phones, disappeared after a while without reaching the shore.
