Warm air to push temperatures in Indonesia to 36°C on November 13

Strong sunshine intensifies the heat from November 13

From November 12 to 18, warm air and strong sunshine are expected to combine, bringing higher temperatures across Indonesia. At around 1,500 m above the surface, warm air of +18°C or higher is spreading widely from the Indian Ocean and continues to warm areas near the surface. Relatively few clouds, along with the effects of solar radiation, will also contribute. The heat is expected to peak on November 13.

Outlook for major cities

Warm air and strong sunshine are expected to persist during the period. Surabaya is forecast to reach 36°C between November 12 and 18, with humidity ranging from 52% to 58%. Denpasar is forecast to reach 32–34°C and Jakarta 31–33°C; neither is expected to reach 35°C.

Try to limit outdoor activities during the day as much as possible. Take steps to cope with the heat, including drinking fluids regularly and improving ventilation indoors.
