Weather Forecast for Thursday, 26 February 2026: Several Regions on Alert for Heavy Rainfall
The Indonesian Agency for Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics (BMKG) has released an early warning regarding potential significant weather that is predicted to affect various regions of Indonesia on Thursday, 26 February 2026. This condition is influenced by the presence of low pressure and active cyclonic circulation in several parts of Indonesian waters.
Based on the analysis of atmospheric dynamics, there is low pressure in the Indian Ocean southwest of Lampung, as well as cyclonic circulation in the Indian Ocean west of northern Australia and the North Natuna Sea. This system triggers the formation of convergence and confluence areas that extend from the Natuna Sea to the Indian Ocean south of Java and Bali.
In addition, areas of slowing wind speeds (convergence) are also monitored in the Malacca Strait, the Indian Ocean west of Aceh, the Java Sea, to Central Papua. These conditions can significantly increase the potential for the growth of rain clouds along the areas where the winds meet.
The public is advised to increase their preparedness, especially those in areas with the potential for heavy to very heavy rain, including:
The following are details of the weather forecast in several major cities in Indonesia, divided by region:
