===Climate=== [[File:Rainy Jakarta.jpg|thumb|170px|[[Drizzling]] in Jakarta]] Jakarta experiences a [[tropical monsoon climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]]: ''Am'') as classified by the system. The city's [[wet season]] spans most of the year, from October to May. The [[dry season]] lasts from June to September, with each of these months receiving less than {{convert|100|mm|1}} of rainfall on average. Situated in the western part of Java, Jakarta sees its highest rainfall in January and February, averaging {{convert|299.7|mm|1}} per month, while the driest month is August, with an average rainfall of {{convert|43.2|mm|1}}.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://waterindonesiaexpo.com/visiting/travel/general-information/|title=General Information|publisher=Water Indonesia|access-date=16 July 2024|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240716145139/https://waterindonesiaexpo.com/visiting/travel/general-information/|archive-date=16 July 2024}}</ref> Every year faces recurring issues, such as [[floods]] and [[thunderstorms]]. A [[Upper tropospheric cyclonic vortex|cyclonic vortex]] leads to moisture convergence over a large area, including western Java Island. Additionally, this vortex causes a mainly meridional monsoon flow, where near-surface winds blow almost perfectly from north to south over West Java. The impact of these predominant northerly winds hitting the rugged topography in southern West Java likely contributes to the increased convection that causes floods in Jakarta.<ref>{{cite web|title=Monsoon Effect at Flood Phenomena on 2002 and 2007 in DKI-Jakarta|url=http://eprints.undip.ac.id/2067/1/Monsoon_Effect_at_Flood_Phenomena_on_2002_and_2007_in_DKI-Jakarta.pdf|website=UNDIP INSTITUTIONAL REPOSITORY|access-date=22 November 2012|archive-date=22 November 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121122074409/http://eprints.undip.ac.id/2067/1/Monsoon_Effect_at_Flood_Phenomena_on_2002_and_2007_in_DKI-Jakarta.pdf|url-status=live}}</ref> Average temperatures are very high with moderate rainfall. During the day, the temperature usually hovers around {{convert|32|°C|°F|1|abbr=on}} but drops to about {{convert|24|°C|°F|1|abbr=on}} in the evening. These are average temperatures, and some days can be hotter. It's advisable to dress appropriately to handle the heat. January is the rainiest month, with over {{convert|300|mm|1}} of precipitation, whereas August is the driest, with around {{convert|45|mm|1}} of rainfall. The average temperature in the coldest month (February) is {{convert|27|°C|°F|1|abbr=on}}, and in the warmest month (October), it is {{convert|28|°C|°F|1|abbr=on}}. Sea temperatures range from {{convert|26.5|°C|°F|1|abbr=on}} in August to {{convert|29.5|°C|°F|1|abbr=on}} in March, April, November, and December.<ref>{{cite
