The video, which was first published on Facebook by a resident of North Patukliang, raised fears that earthworms are an early indication of an earthquake.

West Nusa Tenggara was hit by a series of major earthquakes between July and August 2018, resulting in hundreds of deaths and tens of thousands of damaged buildings. The province is still recovering from the earthquake.

North Batukliang police chief the first inspector. Kumang Ronaka confirmed that the accident in the video actually occurred. “The event happened in Pajik Nonggal village,” Kumang said on Wednesday, citing the Kompass.com website.

However, the head of the Mataram Geophysics Station, Urduanto Septiadi, denied that the accident was a possible earthquake.

He said: “It was not accompanied by other precursors to earthquakes such as dog barking, fish that jump into ponds and snakes emerging.”

He said that the sudden appearance of worms is related to sudden changes in weather and climate. However, Ardhianto asked the audience to remain vigilant as Lombok was an earthquake-prone area. (Ali)
