BMKG memastikan wilayah Jawa Tengah dan sekitarnya negatif terdampak sebaran abu vulkanik Gunung Anak Krakatau berdasarkan metode paper test di beberapa titik seperti Bandara Ahmad Yani, Tegal, Cilacap, dan Bandara Kertajati. Yoga Sambodo menjelaskan bahwa deteksi satelit di atmosfer atas tidak selalu berarti abu turun ke permukaan, karena paper test menunjukkan hasilnya negatif. BMKG juga meminta masyarakat tetap tenang, tidak terprovokasi informasi media sosial, dan merujuk pada lembaga resmi seperti PVMBG atau BMKG.
