Historic storms and floods hit Turkey After days of warnings from the Turkish State Meteorological Service, storms and heavy rains brought daily life to a standstill across Türkiye. The roof of a building in Kağıthane was blown off by the storm, which increased in intensity. People walking in Taksim Square had difficulty walking due to the storm, while the waves rose meters high on the coast, especially on the coast of Üsküdar. In the western province of İzmir, the sea overflowed and the water merged with the pavement. The rain, which intensified overnight in the southern province of Antalya, flooded canals and stranded vehicles on the roads. #istanbul #tirebolu #turkey #waves #tsunami #giresun #naturaldisasters #climatechange #weather #flood #storm #hurricane #news #rain A natural disaster is a serious adverse event caused by natural processes on Earth; Examples include floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, storms, rain, hail, wildfires, waves, wind, snow, weather, and other geological processes.
