BMKG Denies Mount Merapi Alert Status Causes Hot Weather in Yogyakarta

TEMPO.CO, Yogyakarta - The Yogyakarta Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) rebuffed rumors that hot weather in the city was related to the alert status of Mount Merapi, which has been raised since November 5, 2020.

“There is no relation between the city’s current temperature and the activities of Mount Merapi,” said the Yogyakarta BMKG Head, Reni Kraningtyas, when contacted on Monday, November 9, 2020.

Reni admitted that the hike in the city's temperature was quite high and felt by locals. “The maximum air temperature now fluctuates around 30-35 degrees Celsius,” she added.

Based on the agency's analysis, the increased temperature in Yogyakarta this November was attributable to meteorological factors. Reni referred to the sun’s position that was in the southern hemisphere. Thus, Java island was receiving high radiation intensity.

The maximum temperature was recorded at 34 degrees Celsius on November 6, 33 degrees on November 7, 32 degrees on November 8, and 31 degrees on November 9.

Another meteorological factor was sunny weather. In the last few days, Reni went on, Yogyakarta saw no clouds so there was almost nothing blocking sunlight from entering the earth. “This causes the earth's temperature to rise quickly.”
