Weather and geological hazards in Blitar

Overview

Authorities in Blitar are managing various weather related challenges. In Blitar Regency, the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) has been monitoring drought risks and distributing clean water to residents due to non-uniform rainfall. Simultaneously, Blitar City has faced localized flooding caused by heavy rainfall and drainage infrastructure limitations, including illegal drainage closures.

Following heavy rain, the situation escalated in southern Blitar Regency on November 2, 2026, when landslides occurred in the Wonotirto and Panggungrejo districts. These incidents resulted in a collapsed road retaining wall in Ngadipuro Village and damage to a residential kitchen in Kaligambir Village. Emergency response teams from the BPBD, police, and military have been deployed to clear debris and install tarpaulins on cliffs to prevent further erosion.
