Turkey - Bad weather disrupted daily life in the western city of Izmir on Thursday, with rising sea levels flooding the city's famous Kordon coastline, while in Istanbul, ferry services were temporarily suspended. Northeaster winds up to 100 kilometers in speed (62 mph) battered Turkey's western coasts Thursday, gradually dropping temperatures and adding to heavy rainfall that started late Wednesday. Izmir, the country's third-largest city located on the tip of a gulf, was the scene of surreal images of streets inundated by floodwater seeming to merge with the sea.
