JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) has alerted 267 personnel from the rapid reaction team to coordinate with relevant agencies in anticipating the impact of critical situations, including extreme weather.
"They are monitoring and coordinating with the department for 24 hours regarding any developments in the area, both fire incidents, extreme weather and strong winds," said Jakarta BPBD Chief Executive Isnawa Adji as quoted by Antara, Wednesday, March 9.
Isnawa explained that the DKI BPBD also continues to provide the latest information, especially appeals to the public regarding extreme weather through social media.
BPBD appealed to the public to always be aware of the presence of fallen trees, billboards, public street lighting poles (PJU) and other materials, when strong winds occur.
BPBD also coordinates with the DKI City Park and Forest Service to monitor old trees to anticipate fallen trees that can fall on other materials.
"BPBD also coordinates with PTSP and related OPD to anticipate and monitor billboards so they are not at risk during extreme weather," Isnawa said.
Previously, the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) warned that the intensity of rain was quite heavy accompanied by lightning and strong winds in parts of Indonesia.
Most of Indonesia is currently in the period of the end of the rainy season and the transition from the rainy season to the dry season.
Therefore, the potential for heavy rain in a short time accompanied by strong winds and tornadoes is common. Conditions like this can last until April-May 2022.
