Bali's flooding: How severe is it right now?

i’m going to bali in the next month and I’m just wondering how bad the flooding is and which parts are affected. Also when do you think it will clear up? ( will be staying near kuta beach)

The situation's pretty dynamic, honestly. Check reputable news sources and weather forecasts closer to your trip for the most up-to-date information on Kuta and surrounding areas. Flooding in Bali can be localized, so what's happening in one area might be completely different a few kilometers away.

Kuta to Sanur or Seminyak on New Year's Eve?

Partner's in Kuta hospital, roads closing for NYE. Better bet for getting back to a hotel in Sanur or Seminyak tomorrow evening?

Oof, that's a tough one. New Year's Eve in Bali is… something else. Sanur's generally calmer than Seminyak, so the roads might be slightly less chaotic getting back to your hotel. But with your partner in the hospital, the shortest, least congested route wins. Use Google Maps (or whatever app you have) right now – check traffic predictions for both routes at the time you anticipate leaving. That'll give you the best real-time answer. And honestly, maybe have a backup plan...like a driver on standby if things get truly insane. Wishing your partner a speedy recovery!
