Monsoon retreat and post-monsoon onset in Telugu headlines on 27 Sep 2026
Oneindia Telugu published on Sunday, 27 September 2026, 12:39 IST that the country was entering the end phase of the monsoon season with a dramatic weather change.
The report said INSAT-3DS images from 23 September and 27 September showed a clear shift: north and northeast India were heavily clouded on 23 September, while by 27 September northwest and central India appeared largely cloud-free. A western disturbance moving from the Mediterranean was interacting with a low/depression over central India, bringing rain to Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Delhi-NCR during withdrawal.
The article noted there is no fixed calendar date for full monsoon withdrawal; IMD declares it based on humidity, wind direction and rainfall trends. Post-monsoon conditions were described as beginning as the monsoon retreated from northwest India.

4,000 km cloud band from India to China captured on 25 Sep 2026
A day earlier, AP7AM on 26 September 2026 reported an INSAT-3DS image from 25 September showing an extensive cloud band stretching from India over the Himalayas to China and Southeast Asia. The densest concentration was reported over eastern and northeastern India, Bangladesh and Myanmar.
The report linked the system to monsoon circulation, low pressure systems and moisture from the Bay of Bengal. It cited IMD-linked warnings for heavy rain on 26 September in Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar due to low pressure over Chhattisgarh-Odisha.
The ~4,000 km length was described as a visual estimate requiring satellite metadata for precise measurement, and the conditions were specific to 23-27 September 2026.
