The smoke fog in Jambi City began to decrease after some local areas were rained, so that it could help reduce forest and land fires (karhutla) in a number of districts around the area.
It rained for about an hour which flushed a number of Jambi areas in accordance with BMKG's prediction that the rain would fall ahead of the rainy season in November.
Jambi Province BMKG Data and Information Coordinator Anisa Fauziah said the prediction of potential rain in the Jambi Province fell in November, because Jambi has the potential to rain, but is still on a local scale.
"The forecast for rain from a few days yesterday to today, there is the potential for rain, but only local and certain areas," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, October 9.
Meanwhile, the rainy season in Jambi Province is normal in October, but this year it has postponed to November.
The postponement of the rainy season is due to the El Nino phenomenon and the Positive Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) phenomenon in the Jambi region, so that the 2023 dry season becomes drier and rainfall in the low category.
