In the twelve years we have been coming to this area of Turkey, we have never until now experienced such indifferent weather as we have these last few weeks, for this time of year :-\ This latest bad spell has now lasted virtually a week here in Hisaronu.
We had fires at night right up to May 31st, and now day after day of cloudy skies :-\
Anyone else remember weather in the past here to compare with this currently poor `late May `early June` ?
-
According to the weather on my iPhone for Fethiye, it says it has been in the 80's and sunny? Is that not right? if not, i'm over in 2 weeks, hope it improves! :)
-
The iPhone weather is a little out. Today is cloudy not as shown on iPhone. Same has been so for last two days. Last night at 11pm in Hisaronu the led temperature sign near the taxi rank read 21 degrees. It was nowhere near that and was a little chilly
having said that there are lots of sunburned people still walking about!
-
We have been coming for around 23 years always at this time and I have never seen it like this.
-
i think it may have something to do with volcanic dust in the atmosphere.
-
Forcast is for rain on Sunday, so that might clear the skies
-
I agree it certainly is very strange weather ... none of the weather forecasts seem to reflect the weather conditions at the moment. A couple of days of it I can cope with ... good for getting jobs done etc. but I've had enough now and want some sun back!
-
Lovely here in York today (and yesterday .. and Wednesday)
Prefer the sun in Calis though :)
-
It was brilliant sunshine @ linton-on-ouse yesterday

bright hot sunshine here in Cambridge.....I have the afternoon off and a jug of pimms cooling in the fridge.....:D
-
Sunny in Uzumlu too Pookie:D
-
Please let the weather get better, only 15 sleeps!
-
Sunny up here in Inverness in the Highlands of Scotland - still a smattering of snow on the top of Ben Wyvis!
-
Personally i think it's fantastic, although i feel for the tourists who've saved-up all year for their "week of sunshine". This is the worst i've known (or at least remember) since i started coming in 1997.
-
one may we came over lovely during the day,but it was cold at night.we had to put the heating on
-
Hi Everyone
Any update on the weather, we are out on 19 June and so need some sunshine and heat. fingers crossed that is has, or will improve by then.

Still a little cloudy,but today was hot and humid, Thunderstorms forecast all week but because we are in a bay its not often weve actually seen any rain here in Fethiye or Calis. Just occasional sprinkles, its still warm enough to sunbathe and get a tan! It has been very unusual though for the time of year I was speaking to a Turkish friend yesterday who is 45 years old She said she doesnt ever remember weather like this in May June and this is my 6th summer living here and 1st time i am still wearing a light jacket some nights.

My weather forecast says it's going to be cloudy, cool and a bit rainy until Friday then Sun Sun Sun.
We go out Friday :)

Dont think holiday makers, visitors should worry about the forecasts, the weather is fine, think my jackets are going into winter storage now :) Spent yesterday at Starfish Bufe Yaniklar Beach, was lovely, best beach in Fethiye Mugla area, but got a bit burnt:(

Not what I heard today from our friends in Koca Calis:
'weather is crap'
were their exact words :)
-
I have been to Cyprus in May 3 times and normally it is cloudless blue skies. This year there was a lot of hazy cloud around.
Definately something going on 8)
-
Legless.....8 miles apart and we had very little rain here in Helensburgh.....strange old place. Heard on radio Greenock was on flood alert!
I couldn't believe how many cloudy days we had in the last 2 weeks we were in Calis Beach. Hope it's better in September.

Jeez, think i'll be leaving the factor 8 at home!! :-\
-
All that said Jenny, please take a high factor. I used 20 and 15 and still got a great tan.
;)
-
Absolutely Toky. When we were out in May the weather was quite mixed, couple of storms and cloudy days but when the sun was out it was very hot. Don't underestimate it. We used factor 25 and 15 and still got lovely tan. :)
-
We must have been really lucky...we flew out on May 4th and only had one morning of rain (Sunday I think)the rest of the time it was a lovely temperature.
We fly out again tomorrow for two whole weeks so it better be nice!!!
-
Got back from Koca Calis on Monday after haveing overcast & Windy days for most of the week, the Sun seem to break through late afternoon most local people where saying that summer is a month late so far this year :(
-
And the forecast is for much the same, for the next 5 days

Weather has been unusual for time of year,but not as bad as some are reporting, It has been cool at night but not seen much rain, nights must be warming up now as i chucked the duvet off for 1st time last night, 1 month later than usual!
Despite forecasts Calis has been lovely today,hot blue sky and cool breeze, rain forecasted for all week but you cant rely on forecasts too much here. I think the rain mainly falls on the mountains behind us, clouds blown away from the coast.
-
Sounds good to me Jules :)
-
Well, I fly to Olu next Saturday! I'm praying the weather is good when I get there :P
-
Been a bit more miserable today Humid Grey skies and drizzly, Thunderstorms forecast again for next few days Then it looks that summer may be here to stay at last!:D
But who knows!
-
iPhone weather says 77 and lightening today? Then going up to 89 degrees on Tuesday?? Mad weather if this is anywhere near correct? 7 sleeps!! 8)
Keep updating us Jules! :)
-
There was a lot of thunder and lightening at Dalaman on wednesday but Fethiye remained dry.
I actually like this weather but def not the norm for June. Seems really hot today.
-
Easily the worst early June in Hisaronu we can remember :(it just goes on and on, and today is yet again miserable with rain threatening constantly :-\
-
Cloudy and quite a cool wind too today. not humid like yesterday. my thermometers showing 25c down from 28c this morning.
