Original Note:
The lines on the radar images are what is known as "bistatic coupling", or "running rabbits". Generally speaking, this occurs whenever there is precipitation between two doppler radars and they sample the same storm. This phenomena is well documented by NOAA. https://www.test.roc.noaa.gov/public-documents/operations-branch/Data_Quality_Oddities_and_Anomalies.pdf
