The lava dome is still stable with a low growth rate, which is at averagely below 20,000 cubic meters per day.

BPPTKG appealed the public to stay away from the summit—outside the three-kilometer radius.

Due to a longer distance of lava avalanches, BPPTKG also suggests people living in the vicinity of Kali Gendol areas to increase the awareness of potential lava flows, especially in the case of rain around the summit of Mount Merapi.
