No...it’s the radar beam actually. Everytime someone on a weather forum states otherwise you can tell they should post less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try a different (higher) beam angle and the hole shrinks. Happens every snow.... haha.... not falling for that but good try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God is laughing at us. I would assume it’s the radar beam and it doesn’t snow virga close by. Just like the radar has issues out southwest of Luray.
