Flooding worse in Jakarta
The wet season is really hitting Jakarta hard. Looking at BBC’s website, 20 people have been killed and 340,000 are homeless.
Jakart’a’s rain catchment areas have been expanded recently, but the city cannot expel the water fast enough. Rain is predicted for another week in Jakarta, so things may get worse.
Here in Bali we had a short morning shower around 5.30am, which was over by 6.30am. Right now the sky is blue, with a few wispy clouds a lovely day to be in Bali.
