Landing During “Lodos” @ Istanbul Atatürk Airport

The lodos is the strong south-westerly wind which may predominate episodically in the Aegean Sea and Marmara Sea as well as the Mediterranean coast of Turkey all the year round; it frequently raises high seas and may give violent westerly squalls.

The word lodos is Turkish, coming from Greek word “Notus”, and originally means “southern wind”.
