Jakarta: The Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) forecasted that after April 7, the weather in Southeastern Indonesia, affected by Tropical Cyclone Seroja, the strongest tropical cyclone the country has seen in a decade, will improve.
"The weather will improve because the cyclone is moving farther away," Head of the BMKG Dwikorita Kurniawati said after a limited meeting on Disaster Management in the Provinces of West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) and East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) on Tuesday, as quoted from the Cabinet Secretariat's website.
However, before that, heavy rain accompanied by lightning and strong winds can still potentially occur.
Dwikorita also added that although improved weather is predicted, sea waves can still remain high.
The BMKG as the Jakarta Tropical Cyclone Warning Center (TCWC), since April 2, has detected the Tropical Cyclone Seeds 99S or Tropical Cyclone Seroja.
The tropical cyclone seeds have caused significant extreme weather in the form of very heavy rain, strong winds, high sea waves, as well as hydrometeorological disasters in several areas in NTT.
In disseminating information on weather and climate developments as well as potential disasters, the agency has mobilized seven BMKG stations.
