The article explores the different climates in 34 cities in Indonesia, focusing on how the weather affects people's daily lives. Cities near the coast are hotter, while those in the hills are cooler. Indonesia's climate is mostly tropical, with rainforests, monsoons, and savannahs. The study looked at data from 2009 to 2019 to understand how the weather impacts how people feel in their cities. The findings help us understand how weather can affect our health and comfort in different parts of Indonesia.
