Denpasar — Bali’s Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) issued a weather and dry-season safety notice covering Oct. 27–31, 2026, forecasting generally cloudy conditions and a possibility of light rain in eight parts of the province.
The notice, published on Oct. 28, says Bali remained in the dry season during the third ten-day period of October. It identifies potential meteorological drought impacts in several areas and says there was no early warning for high rainfall during the period.
For the Oct. 27–31 forecast, BPBD lists possible light rain in Badung, Tabanan, Klungkung, Gianyar, Denpasar, Karangasem, Bangli, Buleleng and Jembrana. The source’s list contains nine locations, while its summary describes the conditions generally as cloudy.
Why it matters to visitors and residents
The notice means that foreigners in Bali may encounter changing conditions across the island while dry-season risks remain in effect. BPBD calls for reduced water use and says people should avoid activities that could trigger fires, including burning land or rubbish and discarding cigarette butts carelessly.
The agency also asks people to unplug electrical devices and extinguish burning incense before leaving a home, and to follow weather and early-warning information from the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) and BPBD. These instructions apply to residents, visitors and other people staying in the province.
The notice covers the early-warning period from Oct. 21–31 and distinguishes drought concerns from heavy-rainfall warnings. It states that drought conditions in parts of Bali were classified as Waspada, Siaga or Awas, while no high-rainfall early warning was in force in the notice.
Separate reporting published on Oct. 28 said the Large Center for Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Region III had issued a different warning for moderate to heavy rain in parts of Bali from Oct. 28–31. That report said the rainy season was expected to begin across Bali in November 2026.
