Due to the Extreme Heat in Semarang City, Traffic Cones on the Road are Melting

Dream - The hot weather has been hitting several regions in Indonesia lately. The impact of the hot weather can not only be felt, but also seen with the naked eye.

Like in the video uploaded by TikTok account @devanandhika, which shows the real impact of the hot weather in Semarang, Central Java.

In the video, the passengers in the car recorded the atmosphere on the streets of Semarang during the summer season. From inside the car, it can be seen that the weather is very bright with intense sunlight.

However, the highlight is the appearance of the traffic cones in the middle of the road. The objects used as road dividers should stand upright, but in the video, they are seen melting.

The melting of the road dividers is not due to them being broken or damaged by someone, but it is suspected that the bottom part melted due to the heat from the asphalt and the sun.

However, traffic cones are made of thick and strong plastic. But, due to the extreme heat on the road, they ended up melting simultaneously.

“Semarang is insanely hot,” wrote the caption of the video.

Based on BMKG's prediction, the temperature in Semarang this month can reach 36 degrees Celsius on sunny days. Unfortunately, the exact location of the recorded video on the road was not mentioned.

Nevertheless, the video went viral on social media and has been watched over 1.5 million times. Not only that, the video has also received various responses from netizens in the comment section.

“When using Google Maps in Semarang, the color of the roads is not red because of traffic, but because of the heat,” wrote the account @twentytwoseventh.

“I thought the heat in Pekanbaru made me feel hot too, but seeing the traffic cones in Semarang melting like that surprised me wkwkw,” wrote the account @pidawwwww.

“Why is Semarang so hot right now?,” wrote the account @Adilla.

“The heat in Semarang feels like a simulation of the Day of Judgment,” wrote the account @moonlight.

“When I take a shower in Semarang, the water is not refreshing at all, and I still feel hot afterward,” wrote the account @Tokokyla.
