From Wednesday\nnight (27 May) to early Thursday morning (28 May), skies will generally\nbe cloudy, with light to moderate rain expected to fall unevenly across\nCentral Java. Extreme weather, including heavy rain accompanied by\nstrong winds and lightning, is possible in nine regions, particularly in\nmountainous and highland areas. High waves of 1.25-2.5 metres are\ncontinuing in southern waters and 1-1.25 metres in northern waters,\nwhile high tides from 14:00 to 17:00 WIB have caused flooding in several\nCentral Java coastal areas including Pekalongan, Batang, Kendal, Demak,\nJepara, and Pati. \u2018Residents should be cautious of hydro-meteorological\ndisasters due to extreme weather in the nine Central Java regions,\nespecially during the night and early morning,\u2019 said BMKG Ahmad Yani\nSemarang Meteorological Station forecaster Agus Triyono on Wednesday (27\nMay) evening. Areas likely to experience extreme weather from Wednesday\nnight (27 May) to Thursday morning (28 May), according to Agus Triyono,\nare Purbalingga, Banjarnegara, Wonosobo, Boyolali, Karanganyar,\nTemanggung, Kajen, Pekalongan, and Tegal, while other parts of Central\nJava may see light to moderate rain. According to Agus Triyono, winds\nare blowing from the northeast to southwest at 3-20 km\/h, with\ntemperatures ranging from 14 to 30 degrees Celsius and humidity between\n75% and 95%. Residents in hill slopes and river basin areas are advised\nto remain vigilant for hydro-meteorological disasters. BMKG Tanjung Emas\nSemarang Maritime Station forecaster Wahyu Sri Mulyani stated that the\nongoing high waves in southern Central Java waters pose risks to\nmaritime activities such as fishing boats, barges, and cargo and\npassenger transport, particularly when wind speeds exceed 15 knots.\nMeanwhile, high tides (rob) in northern Central Java waters, added Wahyu\nSri Mulyani, have caused flooding in several coastal areas until\nThursday night (27 May), disrupting residents\u2019 activities such as\ntransportation, port cargo handling, and inland fisheries and salt\nfarming. Meanwhile, 20 hotspots were detected in Riau, spread across six\ndistricts, with Siak Regency recording the highest number at six. BMKG\nrecorded maximum temperatures exceeding 35 degrees Celsius in several\nregions including Aceh, Riau, Bali, Kalimantan, Central Sulawesi, West\nPapua, and East Java. BMKG issued a weather warning for Wednesday, 27\nMay 2026. Caution is advised for potential heavy rain with lightning\nfrom Surabaya to Manokwari. BMKG reported that Jakarta\u2019s weather on 27\nMay 2026 was dominated by thick clouds, with a temperature of 24 degrees\nCelsius in the Gambir area and surroundings. BMKG Regional Office I\nforecaster Endah Paramitha in Medan said on Tuesday that North Sumatra\u2019s\nweather on Wednesday (27 May) morning was forecast to be partly cloudy.\nProlonged heavy rain can lead to insufficient water absorption into the\nground, potentially triggering landslides. Local officials must\ndemonstrate high initiative and rapid response to issues arising in\ntheir respective areas. PLN confirmed that widespread power outages in\nSumatra were caused by severe weather disrupting transmission.\nRestoration of power generation is being carried out progressively. BMKG\nissued an extreme weather warning for 18 regions in Central Java today.\nResidents are also urged to be cautious of coastal flooding and high\nwaves.
