Surabaya, Indonesia, forecast to reach 36°C amid warm air

Strong sunshine adds to the heat from November 13

From November 12 to 17, warm air and strong sunshine are expected to combine to raise temperatures across Indonesia. At around 1,500 m above sea level, warm air of +18°C or higher is spreading widely from the Indian Ocean and continuing to warm areas near the surface. Skies are also expected to remain relatively clear, allowing strong sunshine to add to the heat.

Warm air and strong sunshine are expected to persist throughout the period. Surabaya is forecast to reach 36°C from November 12 to 17, with humidity ranging from 51% to 58%. On November 18, clouds are expected to spread over Surabaya, weakening the sunshine and bringing temperatures down to 34°C.

Avoid going outside during the day as much as possible. Take precautions against the heat by drinking water regularly and improving ventilation indoors.
