Weather conditions on August 4 2008 are to contribute to Turkish fire-fighters' efforts to extinguish a major forest fire rampaging in Turkey's southern tourist-centre province of Antalya for five days, experts say.
“The winds are expected to subside by noon, and humidity levels are also forecast to rise. This will help our efforts to extinguish the fire,” spokesman for the provincial directorate of forestry Aydogan Turedi told Anatolian agency, as quoted by daily Hurriyet. Turedi explained the fire was partially contained and efforts to put it out continued in the villages of Cardak and Sagirin."
