According to the latest assessments by the General Directorate of Meteorology (MGM), partly to very cloudy weather will prevail across the country today. Showers and thunderstorms are expected, particularly in the eastern part of the Marmara region, as well as in the Aegean, Mediterranean, Central Anatolia, Western Black Sea, Eastern Anatolia, and the northern and western parts of Southeastern Anatolia.
The MGM has issued warnings for 44 provinces due to the risk of heavy rainfall and storms. An “orange” alert has been issued for Istanbul, Kocaeli, Bursa, Sakarya, and Yalova, while a “yellow” warning has been issued for 39 provinces. The Ministry of Interior and AKOM have also called on citizens to be careful against floods, flash floods, and transportation disruptions.
Rainfall is expected to be locally heavy in the eastern Marmara, inner Aegean, Mediterranean, northwestern Central Anatolia, and the Western Black Sea. It is estimated that rainfall will be very heavy and, in some places, severe in the north of Istanbul and the Anatolian side, as well as in the surroundings of Bursa, Kocaeli, and Sakarya.
