Summer comes early to Kalkan as temperatures soar PDF Print E-mail

Summer skyTechnically, summer does not begin until 21st June.  This is the summer solstice - the longest day of the year in terms of hours of daylight.  

However, Kalkan experienced unseasonally hot summer temperatures yesterday.

Yesterday in Kalkan, the thermometer soared to more than 40 Centigrade - that's over 100 Farenheit.  Humidity was recorded as 43%.


It was also quite breezy, which resulted in a hair drier effect, for all the 'mad dogs and Englishmen' venturing out in the midday sun.

The ground was so hot that flip flops, or some other suitable footwear was required, as walking barefoot by the pool, or on the beach, was a painful option.

The forecast shows that temperatures should come down a little over the coming days, but by the end of June you can expect things to hot up once more.

Remember, that if you are using air con units to keep cool, it's best to keep doors and windows closed.

Incidentally, another sign that summer has arrived is that Kalkan's schoolchildren break up for their summer holidays today.
