Turkey's meteorological agency has issued a strong wind warning for the Marmara Region, anticipating significant gusts on August 1, 2026. The General Directorate of Meteorology (MGM) released its weather report, highlighting potential disruptions for the country's northwestern area.

Beyond the strong winds, the MGM also forecasts heavy rainfall in several other parts of the country. Specifically, the coastal areas of the Eastern Black Sea, along with the provinces of Ordu, Artvin, Kars, and Ardahan, are expected to experience downpours. Additionally, the interior of Samsun, the southern parts of IฤŸdฤฑr, and the eastern sections of AฤŸrฤฑ are also under a heavy rain advisory.

In contrast to the precipitation expected in the north and east, the Southeastern Anatolia Region will be dominated by hot weather. This contrast underscores the diverse climatic conditions Turkey will experience on August 1st, with one part of the country bracing for storms while another endures high temperatures. The report provides a region-by-region breakdown of the expected weather for Saturday.
