I'm no weather expert, but because you've got a regular pattern around the radar (the circle) that really shouldn't appear in a normal weather condition, the beam may be getting grounded due to local conditions - see beam ducting.
The lil notch on the right is looks like it might be showing incomplete, conflicting, or out of bounds data. The site's map legend may have a decoder for that pattern.

Good bot.
Do we not have AMP bot anymore?
I dunno, I know it was a thing on Reddit, I don't think I've ever seen it over here. Maybe Google bonked them.
That tracks, thanks!
