Abstract: Many special meteorological events have been labeled upon the observations by people. One of them is called “cemre” that basically means sudden increase of warmth at specific days of every year. The aim of this study is to explain what “cemre” event means. The literature was reviewed and similar events in other cultures were investigated. Daily data from three meteorology stations in Canakkale province was used. The air, water and soil temperatures were averaged for each day of year within the dataset and then analyzed through graphics.
