TANGERANG - The Tangerang Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) revealed that the rainfall that occurred last night in Tangerang has the potential to repeat itself tomorrow, Sunday 17 July.

The Coordinator for Data and Information of the BMKG Geophysics Station Class I Tangerang said this potential occurred because it was currently in a transitional period or wet dry season with moderate forest intensity.

"All the people are asked to stay updated regarding the weather. Because according to our current data, the potential for rain can still occur until July 17, 2022, tomorrow," said Urip in a written statement, Saturday, July 16.

He said, from measuring instruments scattered in several locations such as Soekarno-Hatta Airport, at the Curug Meteorological Station and in South Tangerang (Tangsel), the rainfall was recorded at 37.5 mm/day.

"From these results it can be concluded that the rain that occurs is still in the moderate category," he said.

Even though the rainfall is moderate, Urip said the community is asked to remain vigilant, especially for those who live in low or sunken topographic areas and around watersheds.

He also advised people to maintain environmental sustainability and cleanliness by not littering, especially in waterways.

"In addition, the community can also participate by maintaining the surrounding environment by not littering, especially plastic waste, because it can clog the flow of water and cause inundation to flood," he said.
