Fevzi Burak Tekin, a weather forecast expert at the General Directorate of Meteorology under the Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, noted that according to the latest assessments, rainy weather will continue across the country; showers and, in places, thunderstorms will be seen.
Tekin said tomorrow rain will be effective around Marmara, the Aegean, the Western Mediterranean, the west of Central Anatolia, the Western Black Sea, the south of Eastern Anatolia and the east of Southeastern Anatolia, as well as Hatay, Kahramanmaras and Osmaniye. Marmara, the Aegean, the Mediterranean, the Black Sea, Central Anatolia, Eastern Anatolia and Southeastern Anatolia are the main geographic regions of Türkiye.
