Bursa's Climate
Bursa sits in northwestern Turkey at the foot of Mount Uludag, not far from the Sea of Marmara, giving it a transitional Mediterranean climate tempered by mountain influence. Summers (June–September) are hot and fairly dry, usually 28–34°C with plenty of sunshine, while winters (December–February) are cool and wet with frequent rain and daytime highs of 6–12°C, even as Uludag's summit lies deep under ski-season snow. Spring and autumn are mild and pleasant, when the surrounding hills turn lush and green. Rainfall concentrates in the colder months.
