Climate change is affecting Turkey just like the rest of the world. Recent weather forecasts indicate that heavy rainfall will impact the Marmara and Mediterranean regions.

The General Directorate of Meteorology has announced local thunderstorms and heavy rain expected in Istanbul and its surroundings. This situation is considered a consequence of climate change.

Winds are expected to blow from the west and northwest. This could lead to temperatures remaining above seasonal norms.

The expected rainfall in Istanbul could have positive effects, especially in agriculture. However, excessive rainfall also brings the risk of flooding.

Taking measures to combat climate change is crucial for individuals and governments. Raising awareness on this issue is a critical step for our future.
