Hot Temperatures In Indonesia Reach 38 Degrees Celsius

Since the end of September, parts of Indonesia have been hit by very hot weather during the day. The highest temperature in several regions of Indonesia reached 38 degrees Celsius. According to data from the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency, most areas of Indonesia will experience very high weather, especially during the day. Most of Indonesia is currently still experiencing the dry season and will enter the seasonal transition in October-November.
Quoting BMKG data from the BMKG.go.id website, the maximum temperature was measured between 22-29 September 2023 in several regions of Indonesia with a temperature range of between 35 - 38 degrees Celsius. The highest temperature of 38 degrees Celsius occurred in Semarang, Central Java on September 25 and 29 2023. Meanwhile, the temperature in the Jabodetabek area reached 37.5 degrees Celsius.
The high hot weather factor in Indonesia is influenced by the very minimal level of cloud growth during the day. This condition causes very hot weather during the day. In addition, there is a relatively more intense influence of the sun south of the equator compared to other regions.
Other factors that influence hot weather in Indonesia are wind speed, cloud cover, and air humidity levels which have a big impact on hot temperature conditions in several regions in Indonesia.
Quoting from the BMKG.go.id website, it is predicted that this very hot weather phenomenon will continue until October. This hot weather will dominate during the day. BMKG also appealed to the public to maintain health by providing adequate body fluids, especially for residents who do outdoor activities. This is done to minimize dehydration, fatigue, or other negative impacts.
