Thunderstorm season near Adana

Adana sits in Turkey, where lightning is most frequent October–December. Turkey's lightning concentrates in the transition seasons. Spring and autumn bring frontal storms and convective downpours across the Anatolian interior around Ankara, the Marmara region around Istanbul, and the Mediterranean and Black Sea coasts, while the eastern mountains add summer afternoon storms. These systems build fast and can strike well ahead of the rain, so the live distance to the nearest flash and its trend matter more than any monthly average.

Where Adana sits

Adana sits at about 29 m on the coast, where sea-breeze convergence can trigger storms that build fast on summer afternoons — a live nearest-strike distance beats waiting for the rain.
