Original Note:
Radar shows reflected energy, not transmitted. It's NOT coming from the radar. This is RF interference under superrefraction conditions. Plenty of documentation for this. Radar does NOT modify the weather! Post shows a lack of understanding of basic radar & meteorology. https://www.roc.noaa.gov/public-documents/operations-branch/Data_Quality_Oddities_and_Anomalies.pdf https://www.ntia.doc.gov/files/ntia/publications/13-490_1_.pdf https://www.noaa.gov/jetstream/radar-beams https://training.weather.gov/wdtd/courses/rac/principles/data-quality/story.html
