Mysterious “Beam” Interrupts Radar in Illinois, Puzzles Experts

Since the 16th of November, the National Weather Service has been reporting that a mysterious “beam of interruption” in Lincoln, Illinois has been screwing with it’s radar. A quick glance at one of their Doppler images and it’s easy to see that something is shooting through the state, but as of now the meteorologists can only guess at the cause.

Is it visual evidence of some kind of HAARP mind control? A targeting beam from an intergalactic destroyer? Maybe, but there could also be a much more mundane explanation.

“We’re not sure what it is yet,” meteorologist Llyle Barker, told the Journal Star. “4G has caused interference before, so it might be a 4G tower.”

The Weather Service has stated that the interference is mostly harmless and hasn’t really impacted them, so they probably won’t look into it much more.

This happens all over the country ALL THE TIME. We either had stupid “experts” or they are deceiving ah’s.

some kind of interference, even from a source inside the station.

Maybe a malfunctioning microwave oven in the break room?

A lot of weather doppler radar sits around 3.6Ghz, so does some of the 4G gear at 3.65Ghz....

Although they are not supposed to interfere...stuff happens

I had some Motorola gear on a rooftop by the Ft. Lauderdale airport, each revolution by the radar caused an automatic signal drop in the gear....PIA....

Switched frquencies for the gear aimed the airports diection, problem solved....

You must be a hardware guy - they always blame the software... :-)

As I suspected; there are windmills there. The writers of the article would know with basic research, that windmills mess with weather radar returns.

HAARP is awesome apparently it controls the weather, causes quakes, controls minds, talks to aliens and now can jam radar simply amazing

And does some great covers of many old favorites. ;-)

The new radar has a problem that wasn’t resolved in the setup.

High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP)

They use large antenna arrays to pump energy (high freq radio signals) into the atmosphere. Many theories as to what it does; everything from a sensing array for stealth aircraft, weather control, mind control, communications, long range sensors and more.

I once used to visit a site like these. One of those places that didnt show on the maps.

I forget what they do there.

A targeting beam from an intergalactic destroyer?

I sure hope so, and I hope it's focused on Springfield!!
