JAKARTA - The Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) released the potential for high waves seen from wind movement patterns in a number of regions in Indonesia, namely the northern and southern parts.
The wind pattern in the northern part of Indonesia generally moves from the Southeast to the Southwest with wind speeds ranging from 5-20 knots, while in the southern region of Indonesia it generally moves from the East - Southeast with a speed of 8-25 knots.
The highest wind speeds were observed in the waters of Enggano-Bengkulu Island, waters west of Lampung, the western and southern parts of the Sunda Strait, waters south of Banten, waters south of Merauke and the Arafuru Sea south of Merauke.
