I just had an entire trailer for “Zombie Snake” run through my head.
Sadly, this phone is incapable of letting me type it out rationally.

I’d have to see a loop. Given the location I’d bet there was an imaging loop too. I see know reference to how long it was there and if it moved. Outside of those I’d say hardware issue.

The weather radar is probably a less sophisticated variety RF wise wrt to waveforms, with a digital back end for processing etc. The article didn’t say whether it had Doppler, or what polarization or frequency diversity capability it has or doesn’t.
I’d rule out environmental effects if this was a persistent trace, probably birds too since that’s an odd flight pattern not normally seen. The article didn’t say whether this was stationary or not.
My guess is EW spoofing, likely not too much of a difficult job since the radar is stationary. Maybe by a Naval vessel, aircraft or even a land-based emitter trying out some of their techniques.

Oops! I saw the WA and thought it saw Washington state.

Planely, I’m “inclined” toward skepticism.
