Giant 1,000-km cloud band stretches across northern India and Pakistan
A giant 1,000-kilometer-long cloud band has shown up on satellite images, stretching across northern India and into Pakistan.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) says this is thanks to a western disturbance coming from the Mediterranean, and it is likely to bring rain, thunderstorms, and gusty winds over the next few days.

The cloud cover is hovering over states like Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, parts of Rajasthan, and parts of Pakistan.
Weather experts have warned about possible heavy rain and even hailstorms in these areas.
Urban spots could see waterlogging and traffic jams if the downpour gets intense.
Authorities are keeping an eye on things for now, so if you are in these regions, it is a good idea to stay updated.
