JAKARTA - The Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) predicts that the majority of big cities in the country will experience rain on Thursday, October 13.

According to online information from the BMKG which was followed in Jakarta, Thursday, the thing that affects rain in big cities in Indonesia is because of the seeds of a 90W tropical cyclone in the South China Sea, which causes the formation of a convergence area in the South China Sea.

Then, the cyclonic circulation is also in the West Indian Ocean of Bengkulu and Papua, which forms a convergence area from the Papua New Guinea region to the Papua region.

Other convergence areas also extend from the Aceh region to the Malacca Strait, from the Mentawai Islands of West Sumatra, in Central Java from East Java to the Java Sea, from the South Indian Ocean of Central Java to West Java, in West Nusa Tenggara from the Timor Sea to the Banda Sea, from South Sulawesi to the Gulf of Tomini, from Papua New Guinea to the Bay of Cendrawasih and in the southern part of Papua.

This condition is able to increase the potential for rain cloud growth around tropical cyclone seedlings and along the convergence area.
