DENPASAR - The Denpasar Regional Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BBMKG) issued an early warning of extreme weather in Bali, which is expected to occur on February 11-17, 2026.

"We have identified significant developments in atmospheric dynamics that have the potential to increase rainfall intensity," said Head of the Regional Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Center (BMKG) III Cahyo Nugroho, quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, February 11.

Based on the analysis of the Denpasar Meteorological and Geophysical Agency, the Asian monsoon is expected to still have a strong influence accompanied by the formation of wind convergence patterns, namely convergence and wind turn in the Bali region.

In addition, wet air humidity to the upper atmospheric layer or 200 millibars causes an increase in convective activity and the potential for extreme weather events in the form of moderate to heavy intensity rain accompanied by lightning and strong winds.

His party estimates that heavy moderate rain accompanied by lightning and strong winds are potentially occurring in the Badung, Denpasar, Tabanan, Jembrana, Bangli, Gianyar, Karangasem, Klungkung, and Buleleng regencies.

These areas are potentially affected by hydrometeorological disasters in the form of floods, flash floods and landslides, depending on the level of vulnerability of each region.

Then, he continued, it is necessary to be aware of the high potential of sea waves reaching 1.25-2.5 meters for the South Bali Strait, Badung Strait, South Lombok Strait, and South Bali Waters.

"Always be vigilant and can take anticipatory steps so that daily activities can continue safely and smoothly," he added.

To monitor weather developments, BMKG invites the public to renew maritime weather information on the bbmkg3.bmkg.go.id or maritim.bmkg.go.id pages.

In addition, weather information can also be observed from social media including Instagram @bmkgbali or through the BMKG information application.
