BPBD DKI urges the public to remain careful and alert to potential inundation. This is one of the reasons is considering the rain that hit the DKI Jakarta area and its surroundings on Friday (24/5) caused an increase in status, including at Bedung Katulampa, Depok Monitoring Post, Manggarai Water Gate, Karet Water Gate on the same day and Saturday.
Meanwhile, on a separate occasion, Manggarai Water Gate Operator Andi Yusuf said the water level at Manggarai Water Gate began to rise at 06.00 WIB to 830 cm or two alert due to water shipments from Katulampa Dam Bogor and Depok.
"Residents who live on the banks of the Ciliwung River may continue to increase their vigilance because there is still the potential for an increase in local rain," he said.
