I notice on the Accu weather website that the week when we commence our holiday, 7th September, there is a drop in temperature and also clouds forecast!
Is the weather being affected by the dreadful fires in Greece? From which way does the prevailing weather come? Please do not get me wrong, my heart goes out to all those poor Greeks who are badly affected.

Hi, I have just looked on holiday weather.com and it says its going to rain in Kalkan for the next 7 days after today. We arrive friday. Am I right to panic!!

Accu Weather only forecasting a chance of a shower tomorrow and mostly sunny for next 14 days.
Weather forecasting at best is usually innaccurate. Look at the BBQ summer we were promised in the Uk

Try not to worry too much and hopefully the sun will shine for you. Whatever the weather it's bound to be much better than back home!

I'm due to fly on Saturday (12th) - the forecast for the north of England - hot and sunny....the forecast for Kalkan - not so! Cloud and rain! I don't believe it! It's rained here non-stop for the last 4 weeks... (give or take 10 mins)... fingers are definitely crossed that the forecast for Kalkan is WRONG and it's going to be hot and sunny, as is normal for this time of year

)

Only one way to find out!

We had two weeks there returning last Monday and the weather was absolutely fabulous, hot and sunny every day in the thirties, hardly a cloud to be seen

. Can't imagine there being a drastic change. Came back to sunny weather in Wales

, thank goodness a bit of summer at last, will be able to keep the tan topped up at least for a while. Hope you have great weather over there I'm sure you will, even if you have an odd off day can't think of a better place to spend one. Have a wonderful holiday, I'm very jealous!!

Sun in Wales? i bet the local population were walking around pointing up at it..this strange bright light in the sky

Have you seen the weather on the web cam, it's looking pretty grim, very cloudy & grey, still rather be there than here though!!

There are some very dark clouds below the top of the hill as I type, it looks slightly brighter out to sea. We were warned of a storm yesterday but it didn't materialise & there were storms in the area on Tuesday night but they missed Kalkan. Rumours persist in town of a heavy storm to hit Fetihye, Kalkan & Kas but no-one seems sure of the timing.

We've been here nearly one week now and it's been gorgeous most of the time but overcast a couple of days. It's been cloudy for most of today and we've just had some very heavy rain with a bit of thunder but it's stopped now....looks like it'll start again before tonight though! There are big dark clouds creeping down over the mountains behind us (we're in the Kelebek). All the locals we've spoken to today say there's going to be a big storm tonight then lots of rain tomorrow - am hoping after that it'll be back to brilliant sunshine and 30 degrees for next week! I need some more sun!

JenJen · « **Reply #11 on:** September 11, 2009, 02:08:36 PM »

Ooh huge rumbles of thunder now and the wind has really picked up...here is the big storm everyone's been talking about!

tog miester · « **Reply #12 on:** September 11, 2009, 03:20:58 PM »

It was not that bad. Anyone would have thought Armageddon was upon us. We had a little rain. It was not the big one, but a damp squid one.

JenJen · « **Reply #13 on:** September 11, 2009, 03:28:19 PM »

Yes, it went so dark and windy I thought it was going to be much bigger but tailed off after a bit and back to clouds now.... Oh well.

Fear not!

Looking at the webcam it looks like it has cleared up and checking www.weather.co.uk it says:

28C for the next 10 days with 20% chance of rain, today, Sunday. Then 0% chance of rain for the next 9 days. There may be a tiny bit of cloud on Wednedsay!

Enjoy every sun blessed minute!

Cheers

Steve

I am sitting on the terrace as I type this and the weather is beautiful at the moment.

kalkan4eva · « **Reply #16 on:** September 13, 2009, 11:11:24 AM »

We've heard from others who are out there that there's been a freak storm...? Selfishly I'm hoping that any freak weather is done and dusted by the time we get there in early October

. At least I'm honest

The live webcam shows lovely weather today, although I can't get into the KTLN site to look on the town webcam (my favourite pastime!)

Brooksie · « **Reply #17 on:** September 13, 2009, 11:14:33 AM »

It's getting hotter by the minute. I would post a photo whilst you are waiting for the webcam to come back up but that would be cruel

kalkan4eva · « **Reply #18 on:** September 13, 2009, 11:26:49 AM »

sounds wonderful...feel free to post a photo....I would indeed find it cruel, but would return the favour when you a stuck in a colder miserable Britain in October

Today is beautiful in Wales so I'm only moderately jealous....

Brooksie · « **Reply #19 on:** September 13, 2009, 11:33:22 AM »

Will try and post a photo but the sun is so bright at the moment I can hardly see the keyboard
