What was the weather in Constantinople?

Answer 1

A pleasant Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and cool, dry winters.

Except on May 29, 1453, when the air was cloudy with smoke and cannon fire, and on 8th April 1204 when it became unpleasantly hot from the fires that the godless crusaders lit to burn women, children, priests, and books.

From 1204 to 1261 it rained every day, probably in response to the presence of the so-called "Latin Empire", which was little more than a collection of boorish, illiterate feudal pigs squatting in the ruins of the civilization they had destroyed and wiping their noses on brocaded tapestries and ancient manuscripts.

The weather in Constantinople came to an end in 1930 when the name was officially changed to Istanbul (which had been in common usage for years).
