Turkey's General Directorate of Meteorology (MGM) has issued its weather report for June 21, forecasting a mixed weather pattern across the country. The interior and northeastern parts of Turkey are expected to experience partly cloudy to very cloudy conditions, with scattered showers and thunderstorms anticipated in the higher elevations of the Mediterranean's interior, northern parts of the East Black Sea, and the Ordu region.
Temperatures are predicted to remain largely stable, hovering around seasonal norms. However, eastern regions of the country may experience temperatures 4 to 6 degrees Celsius above average. This suggests a generally warm day, with localized rainfall providing some relief in specific areas.
A strong wind advisory has been issued for several coastal areas. Winds will generally be northerly, but will blow from the south and west in southern parts of the country. Particularly, the southern Marmara region and the North Aegean coasts can expect strong winds blowing from the north and northeast at speeds of 40-60 km/h.
The forecast details specific conditions for major regions. The Marmara region will see clear skies with strong northerly winds on its southern coasts. The Aegean region will be mostly clear, with potential for partial cloudiness in the south and strong winds along the northern coasts. The Mediterranean region will be partly cloudy, with chances of afternoon showers in inland high areas. Central Anatolia and the West Black Sea regions are expected to be partly cloudy, while the Middle and East Black Sea regions will see scattered showers, especially in the East Black Sea and Ordu areas.
