JAKARTA - The Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) estimates that most cities in Indonesia are cloudy on Friday 11 July 2024, some are cloudy throughout the day, even. The cities that are expected to be cloudy throughout the day are Bengkulu, Central Jakarta, Semarang, Banjarmasin, Pangkal Pinang, Kupang, and Palembang. While sunny cloudy cities in the afternoon are Banda Aceh, Denpasar, Serang, Yogyakarta, Pontianak, Tarakan, Mataram, Pekanbaru, Makassar.The number of cities are predicted to be light rain, namely Manado, Kendari, Manokwari, and Ambon, while Gorontalo is predicted to experience moderate rain. Previously, the Head of the Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG), Dwikorita Karnawati emphasized that the phenomenon of heavy rain in the dry dry season that has occurred recently is not a climate anomaly. According to him, this condition is something normal and natural to happen in Indonesia, given the geographical location of Indonesia that is between two continents namely Australia and Asia and two oceans namely the Pacific and the Indies. "This geographical absence makes Indonesia have two different seasons, namely the rainy season and the dry season. The western monsun wind of the Asian continent makes Indonesia experience a rainy season. Meanwhile, in general, the dry season in Indonesia is concerned with the active east-wind of dry Australia," said Dwikorita. Dwikorita said. Although the status of the dry season is still there is a potential for increasing, he said, but it does not mean that it will not rain at all. Rather, the rainfall in a place is less than 50 mm/basisian and occurs at least three consecutive grounds. The dry season itself, he said, does not occur simultaneously in Indonesia and proceeds with different durations between regions. Meanwhile, the Deputy for Meteorology, Guswanto said that based on recent weather analysis and weather conditions developments in the next week, there is still a potential for a significant increase in the dry season. He mentioned factors that affect the increase in rainfall, namely the MJO weather phenomena, the Kelvin Wave, and Rossby Equatial waves detected in most of the Javawe

In addition, he said, the warm sea surface temperature in the waters around Indonesia contributed to creating conditions that support significant rain cloud growth in the region. Guswanto said, in general, the combination of the influence of weather phenomena is estimated to still cause the potential for rain with moderate to heavy intensity accompanied by lightning and strong winds in parts of Indonesia.
