Jakarta – The Agency for Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics (BMKG) predicts that the extreme hot weather found in a number of regions in Indonesia will subside at the end of October to early November 2025. BMKG said the extreme hot weather would end as the rainy season ended up. “Extreme hot weather is likely to begin to subside at the end of October to early November, as the rainy season rises and cloud cover increases,” BMKG head Dwikorita Karnati said Tuesday (14/10/2025). Browse to continue with the content Dwikorita said this extremely hot weather is caused by moving all the sun to southern Indonesia. He said this phenomenon causes cloud cover to decrease, so direct sunlight is more visible on the surface. “Why does it feel warmer? First, there is minimal cloud cover, direct sunlight penetrates without obstacles,” he said. “(Secondly) increases solar radiation, especially in land areas such as Java, Bali and Nusa Tenggara,” he continued. In addition, he said, Indonesia is also currently in a transition period, namely the transition from the dry season to the rainy season. He said it is often characterized by unpredictable weather. BMKG also predicts that the weak La Nina phenomenon will last from October 2025 to January 2026. As a result, rainfall will increase gradually. “Rain forecasts are increasing, from November to January, especially in areas with warm sea gasps that can cause increased rainfall,” he said. Previously, BMKG revealed that the cause of the weather recently felt very warm. BMKG said this hot weather was influenced by the sun’s shift to the south. “Why does it look so hot now? Because the sun on the south side has now moved to a position in southern Indonesia,” said BMKG Deputy for Meteorology, Guswanto, to Journalists at the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry (Kemenhut) office, Central Jakarta, Monday (13/10).
