ISRO Satellite Shows Active Monsoon with Widespread Rainfall Across India
India's 2026 southwest monsoon has regained full strength after a brief lull, with satellite images from ISRO's INSAT-3DS showing extensive cloud cover across the country. A massive rain band stretching 7,000 to 10,000 kilometres from north India to South Korea signals an active monsoon phase, bringing widespread heavy rainfall expected between July 22 and 24. The India Meteorological Department forecasts intense showers across northwest, central, eastern, and northeastern India, which may improve seasonal rainfall and benefit agriculture, while authorities monitor flood risks.
