Last minute statement from the Governor of Istanbul, Ali Yerlikaya
Istanbul Governor Ali Yerlikaya shared the following statements on his social media account;
Watch out for tomorrow’s downpour
Thunderstorms and thunderstorms are expected to be strong across our city beginning Thursday morning.
Dear inhabitants of Istanbul, let us be careful.
“It seems very likely that it is hail.”
The president of the Meteorological Laboratory of the Kandilli Observatory of the University of Boğaziçi, Adil Tek, expressed that a cold air system will enter the country on Thursday: “It begins to enter from Thrace, first of all, it hangs along the coasts from the Aegean Sea and especially from Smyrna. It will lower temperatures in the western regions. Of course, we are in a warm climate at the moment, the sea water is quite warm. A cold air is coming from the north. When this system arrives quickly, the risk of hail increases, especially in the Marmara and Aegean regions with heavy rains. Hail seems very likely. A hose may also appear. It will arrive from Thrace at noon and Thursday afternoon. First of all, Edirne begins to receive rains and then this rain system will hang towards the west of Marmara and the northern part of the Aegean. During the day, this system affects Istanbul and will remain in Marmara on Thursdays and Fridays ”.
“This is one of the important mechanisms that make up hail precipitation”
Emphasizing that heavy rains can cause flooding and flooding, Tek said: “Especially towards Thursday afternoon and evening. We can say that this system will leave the country from the Western Black Sea on Saturday. But it is very likely that I will be strong with him. Because the sea water temperature is high in Marmara, the incoming air temperature around 24 degrees drops to 17-18 degrees. Also, as the upper levels of the atmosphere will be colder, strong convective movements from the bottom up will occur. “This is one of the important mechanisms that make up hail.”
“Around 250 meters”
Speaking about the possibility of hail formation as large as walnuts or hazelnuts on Thursday and Friday, especially in Marmara, Aegean and the Western Black Sea, Adil Tek said: “When we looked at past rains, Ümraniye was strong around Çamlıca. In fact, it is also due to the topographic structure of this place. Çamlıca is one of the highest points in Istanbul. Around 250 meters. It makes the currents of the sea move directly into the atmosphere faster. So yes, the citizens of those regions should be a little more careful. Previous experiences further reinforce the hail formation there. The flow of the sea towards that hill is also increasing rapidly. These places seem more critical than other districts of Istanbul. The districts around Çamlıca and certain parts of Üsküdar seem to be busier, ”he said.
“I’ll park my car inside on Thursday.”
Explaining that he was trying to protect his car outside during the hail last week, Tanju Özveren said: “Last time we covered the vehicles quickly. There were economically damaged vehicles in the Ümraniye region, but not in our region. I am one of the lucky ones. There is a parking lot at my office and at my house. I will park my car inside on Thursday. Last week, everyone took refuge in shopping malls. I think the same will happen this week, ”he said.
Zübeyde Özkan, who lives in Çamlıca, said: “The top of our house was zinc, rattling noises. It was horrible. It was good that we knew that it will rain again. We take care of ourselves, we cover the tops of the cars immediately, we go over any carpet, “he said.
