The dense fog that fell on Istanbul yesterday continued to be effective in the morning hours today as well. Meteorology had warned with a yellow code yesterday for the fog surrounding the city. The fog felt especially around the Bosphorus; While it concentrated around Üsküdar, Kadıköy, Beşiktaş and Sarıyer, it also made itself felt to a large extent in Bakırköy, Zeytinburnu, Beylikdüzü and Büyükçekmece districts.
Istanbul’s transport traffic, which is congested even in normal times, was also greatly affected by the heavy fog. The fog in the Bosphorus led to the cancellation of the flights on the city lines. The suspension of the flights caused a density in the use of Marmaray, taxi and minibus. This led to an increase in vehicle traffic. In addition, Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport was closed to landings and departures as of 08:00 in the morning. Some of the flights were delayed due to heavy fog, while 20 flights were canceled. About 20 planes were diverted to Istanbul Airport. The latest information is that another big fog mass is approaching Istanbul.
On the other hand, the fog in Istanbul also provided the opportunity to take pictures that evoke different emotions. “Leave a photo from the foggy day in Istanbul,” we wrote on Twitter. . We made a compilation of the frames you sent to our post titled ”.
