JAKARTA (Reuters) -Indonesia is expected to experience a longer-than-usual peak period during its wet season this year, bringing a higher risk of floods and extreme rainfall in many areas of the Southeast Asian country, its weather agency forecast on Friday.
The wet season in the archipelago of over 17,000 islands starts this month and ends in April 2026, Indonesia Meteorology and Geophysics Agency head Dwikorita Karnawati said in a news conference.
