JAKARTA - The Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) reports that four provinces in Indonesia need to be aware of potential hydrometeorological disasters influenced by the seeds of tropical cyclone 92W.

Reporting from the www.bmkg.go.id page, in Jakarta, Saturday, December 10, BMKG detected that the seeds of tropical cyclone 92W were located around the Philippines which formed a convergence area from the Sulu Sea to the Philippines.

In addition, low pressure centers were observed to be in the Natuna Sea which formed a convergence area extending from Aceh to the Riau Islands inducing the formation of a "low-level jet" that extends in the South China Sea.

This condition is able to increase the potential for rain cloud growth, wind speed, and sea wave height around the tropical cyclone seed area.

Based on forecasts based on the impact of rain in Indonesia, there are areas that have the potential for hydrometeorological disasters such as floods, flash floods, floods and landslides.

BMKG has set a standby status in the provinces of Aceh, North Sumatra, Riau Islands, and West Kalimantan which is valid until Sunday, December 11.

Quoted from ANTARA, BMKG predicts heavy rain accompanied by lightning today hit a number of major cities in Indonesia, including Banda Aceh, Pekanbaru, and Pangkalpinang.

Meanwhile, moderate-intensity rain is expected to occur in the Padang and Palembang areas. People in Bandar Lampung need to be aware of rain accompanied by lightning and lightning.

For Java Island, rain is expected to hit Semarang, Yogyakarta, and Serang areas. For this reason, the public is asked to be aware of rain accompanied by lightning for the Bandung area.

BMKG appealed to the public to be aware of rain accompanied by lightning and lightning for the Tanjung Selor area.

The areas of Manado, Makassar, and Palu are predicted to rain with heavy intensity. The same situation hit the Ambon region.
