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.

I’m sorry. I’ll move the TV back to the other wall. I didn’t realize those universal remotes were that powerful.

Since this is a weather radar, the problem must be caused by Global Warming. It causes everything else weather related or not.

High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP)

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.

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

It also slices, dices, makes Julian Lennons!

It will get rid of that unsightly razor stubble!

It'll slice bread, onions, potatoes, garden hose and steel pipe! Without losing its edge!

Order before midnight tonight, and save shipping charges. Allow four to six weeks for delivery. Your actual mileage may vary.

Neither. Just someone who reads far too much about military tech.

Someday I wouldn’t mind knowing what it really is, but the wild theories just get in the way...

Practical and basic research. It is a phased-array RF beam designed to manipulate the ionosphere, put simply, to enable over-the-horizon radar among other things - adapting to changes in the "maximum usable frequency" as needed.

HAARP is awesome

apparently it controls the weather, causes quakes, controls minds, talks to aliens and now can jam radar

simply amazing

:p

Indeed it IS amazing.

that’s what I am thinking, because the ‘beam’ STARTING POINT is right there in Lincoln, and should be easy to trace- I am betting it is centered right on their [faulty] reciever

If it went straight across the image and did not stop at Lincoln, I would think something entirely different

It’s just a bug in hardware
