The water now reaches heights of half a meter. This causes flooding of some 14.000 homes in the district and forces thousands of people to be evacuated. The water level of the river rose even further on Friday morning, reaching 15.33 meter in Bojonegoro. The water-level is expected to rise even further.

According to a coordinator of the Center of Resources for the region of Solo in Bojonegoro, Moelyono, the flooding of the Bengawan Solo is still quite controlable.
