Climatology
The region of Indonesia is not generally traversed by tropical cyclones although a lot of systems have historically formed there.[1] In an analysis of tropical cyclone data from the Bureau of Meteorology since 1907 to 2017 which was published after the dissipation of Cyclone Cempaka found that only around 0.62% of all cyclones in the Australian region during those years occurred north of the 10th parallel south.[2]

2000s
- December 28, 2001 – Tropical Depression Vamei crossed through Sumatra before moving out to the Bay of Bengal.[3]
- November 17–22, 2001 – On November 17, a tropical depression formed near southern Papua New Guinea.[4] By the 19th conditions were less favorable, and the JTWC indicated that convection was sheared to the west of the well-defined, yet weak, circulation center. Up to this point, Darwin and JTWC were in agreement regarding the system's strength and its potential for development. However, JTWC issued their first Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert on 21 November, placing the system's center about 200 nm east-northeast of Timor. At 0600 UTC they upgraded the low to a weak tropical cyclone and issued their first warning. JTWC forecast slight strengthening which did not materialize. They issued their second and final warning at 1800 UTC.[4] In their final best track, JTWC held the estimated tropical cyclone-strength intensity through the next day.[5]Though the system was overland for some time, the damage it caused is unknown.
- April 9–14, 2002 – Bonnie caused heavy rainfall and gusty winds in Timor and Sumba. Flash flooding in Sumba killed 19 people.[6]
- April 1–5, 2003 – The precursor tropical disturbance of Ende, where flooding and mudslides destroyed 20 houses and destroyed the roads connecting to East Flores.[8] In Ende, a total of 294 animals were killed.[10] The city's airport was flooded with one meter (3 ft) of water, preventing aerial transportation and leaving the city temporarily isolated. In East Flores Regency in eastern Flores Island, the system left 75 destroyed houses, along with 77 severely damaged and a further 56 receiving light damage.[8] Damage in Indonesia totalled less than $6 million (2003 USD, $6.8 million 2007 USD),[9] and 102 injuries were reported. The Indonesian representative to the Tropical Cyclone Committee of the World Meteorological Organization in 2004 reported the death toll related to the disaster in Indonesia as 58 fatalities.[11]
- December 2–3, 2004 – A tropical low formed near the coast of Java. However, the impacts of this system, are unknown.
- April 18—May 1 – The precursor to Aru Islands, the low weakened slightly and JTWC downgraded Kirrily to a tropical depression, and TCWC Darwin downgraded Kirrily to a tropical low. In the afternoon of the 27th, the JTWC again upgraded Kirrily into a tropical storm. On 28 April the JTWC issued their final warning on Kirrily before the BoM downgraded the storm to a tropical low.
2010s
- April 12–15, 2011 – Tropical Low 29U formed in the Cyclone Errol while moving away from the region.[14]
- April 16–23, 2012 – a weak tropical low formed near East Timor and passed through the western partof the island, where it further weakened and dissipated on April 23. It was unknown if the low had any significant impacts on land.
- May 7–14, 2012 – However, it didn't organized further and remained in that intensity until it started to weaken before dissipating on May 14. However, it was unknown if the depression had impacts on land.
- January 4–8, 2013 – On 9 January, the MV Emeline cargo vessel sank off the coast of Selayar Islands due to high seas from Cyclone Narelle.[16] Of the 17 crewmen, 6 were rescued and 11 others remained missing as of 16 January.[17] Another vessel, the MV Angle, became stranded near West Lombok Regency.[16] By 10 January, Narelle brought strong winds, heavy rains, and rough seas to the province of Bali in Indonesia. Residents and tourists were warned of waves up to 5 m (16 ft). Ferry service between Bali, West Nusa Tenggara, and Java was suspended, isolating residents in Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan, and Nusa Ceningan. Winds from the storm downed many trees and caused severe damage to structures across Bali, especially in the capital city of Denpasar. In Selemadeg Village, one person died after a tree fell on her.[18] Trees and billboards were downed across Jakarta, and three homes were damaged. Flooding in the region closed several roads, leading to traffic delays more than 6 km (3.7 mi) long.[19] In Banten, heavy rains caused four major rivers in the province to overflow their banks, leading to flooding in 33 districts. A total of 10,470 homes across the province were inundated, and four people were killed.[20] In all, 14 people were killed and 6 others were listed as missing.[21]
- May 8–11, 2013 – Parts of northwestern Indonesia were impacted early as Viyaru develops.[22] Parts of northwestern Indonesia were impacted early on in the storm's existence. Five days of heavy rain in Aceh resulted in flash floods, forcing thousands of people to flee.[23] One individual died after being hit by a falling tree in Simeulue Regency, and another went missing after his motorboat sank offshore.[23] On May 9, twenty-two fishermen went missing after sailing into a storm; however, ten were quickly rescued.[24] By May 18, another had been discovered in a nearby area, and the remaining eleven were presumed dead.[24] Flooding occurred in six districts across Aceh due to torrential rains. Waters reached a depth of 2.5 meters in some areas (8.2 ft) and the floods impacted nearly 30,000 people.[25] Eight passengers in a bus were killed due to an accident.[25]
- March 17–21, 2014 – Across Java, Indonesia, Tropical Low Gillian produced moderate to heavy rains. After re-intensifying into a tropical cyclone, swells of 3 to 5 m (9.8 to 16.4 ft) from the storm affected the southern shores of the island.[26] Though well to the north of Cyclone Gillian, the system's circulation drew moisture away from Riau, Western Indonesia, leaving behind fire-prone conditions. Due in part to illegal logging and slash-and-burn land clearing, several new forest fires began by 23 March.[27]
- April 21— May 1, 2017 – a tropical low formed in the Frances in the meantime. It neared the West Timor on April 28, before weakening to a tropical low on the same day. The developing low brought squally rainfall to the Maluku Islands, Tanimbar Islands, and the nearby areas on April 26.[28]
