The highest of the 11 large cities in Indonesia.
Bandung's climate in the 2050s
2041-2060 compared with 1991-2020, moderate emissions
By the 2050s, Bandung's climate will still be more like its own today than any other large city's. The nearest other is Bucaramanga (Colombia).
+1.1°C
Mean temperature over the year
+1.2°C
Highest in the warmest month
+0.9°C
Lowest in the coldest month
-4%
Precipitation over the year
Under high emissions, the nearest is Bucaramanga (Colombia), and only in part.
Its own climate today is 2.9 σ away. How close the match is: 3.2 σ to the climate of Bucaramanga today, where under 2 is close and over 4 is no match (Mahony et al. 2017). 3 of 3 climate model runs name the same city. Seasonal temperature and rain are compared, not extremes, city heat or the sea.
Where else Bandung stands out
3.25 m/s²
Earthquake shaking, once in 475 years
Jakarta: 2.73 m/s².
The highest of the 11 large cities in Indonesia.
Higher than in 91% of the world's 627 large cities

| Water stress | High (40-80%) | Among large cities: above 56% | In Indonesia: 2 of 11 |
| Drought risk | High | Among large cities: above 50% | In Indonesia: 1 of 11 |
| Earthquake shaking, once in 475 years | 3.25 m/s² | Among large cities: above 91% | In Indonesia: 1 of 11 |

Flood depth is read in a single 1 km cell at the city's centre, in today's climate. Other parts of the city can still flood. The country page names the deepest point near a coastal city in 2080, so its figure can be higher. See how deep a river flood reaches around Bandung on the live map
