Recent numerical weather prediction models, including consensus from major global systems, indicate Ankara’s July 10 maximum will likely settle near 29 °C under persistent high pressure over the Anatolian plateau. This ridge suppresses cloud cover and supports clear, dry conditions typical of mid-summer continental climate, aligning with historical July averages of 29–30 °C for daily highs. Current short-range guidance clusters tightly around 28–30 °C, which explains the market’s concentration of probability on those three outcomes (43.5 % at 29 °C, 20.5 % at 28 °C, 19.5 % at 30 °C). Minor model spread and potential afternoon wind or slight moisture shifts keep 28 °C and 30 °C viable, while lower or higher extremes remain improbable given the stable synoptic pattern and short forecast horizon. Updated runs from the Turkish State Meteorological Service and ECMWF over the next 48 hours will provide the next key data points for traders.
