BMKG Weather Forecast 2 July 2026: Alert for Tropical Cyclone Seed 96W

The Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) has released a national early weather warning valid for Thursday, 2 July 2026. Based on the latest atmospheric dynamics analysis, the primary focus is on Tropical Cyclone Seed 96W, which has been detected near the Philippines. This system is forecast to have a high potential for intensification within the next 24 hours, triggering a concentration of rain clouds in several parts of Indonesia. Although no region is under an extreme alert status, BMKG has urged the public to remain vigilant regarding the potential impacts of the resulting rainfall. According to BMKG monitoring, Tropical Cyclone Seed 96W is currently active in the South China Sea, west of the Philippines. The system has a central pressure reaching 1000 hPa with a maximum wind speed of 35 knots, moving northwest. The existence of this system has triggered the formation of convergence and confluence zones extending widely from the North Natuna Sea, the South China Sea, and the Sulu Sea, to the western and eastern Philippine Sea. The cyclonic circulation system extends from the west coast of West Sumatra to its surrounding waters, and from the northern waters of Southwest Papua to the northern Halmahera Sea. This combination of atmospheric activity directly boosts the potential for rain along these areas of wind slowdown. The public is advised to continuously anticipate dynamic daily weather changes.
