Thermometers showed 36 degrees: Citizens who were exhausted by the heat flocked to the beach

The General Directorate of Meteorology continues to issue a hot weather warning in Istanbul. Thermometers in Istanbul showed 36 degrees today. Citizens who were exhausted by the heat cooled off by swimming in the sea in Beşiktaş. Citizens who threw themselves into the cool waters of the Bosphorus had fun. Due to the heat, there was a crowd at water and ice cream stands. Some citizens preferred parks and shaded areas to protect themselves from the heat. Stating that he opened the sea season in Beşiktaş about 3 months ago, Gürcan Ertuğrul said, ''The weather is very hot, we constantly swim in the sea. We have no other way out in such hot weather. Everyone should be especially careful of the sun in hot weather. Everyone should have a hat on their head and not neglect water in their hands.''

Finally, temperatures are expected to increase and show their effect in Istanbul this weekend.
