Doppler Radar image on Dec. 21, 2024 "At first glance, it seems like a pretty boring radar picture across the Northeast (Saturday) morning," said FOX Weather Senior Meteorologist Greg Diamond.
A Doppler radar is a specialized radar that uses the Doppler effect to produce velocity data about objects at a distance. [1] It does this by bouncing a microwave signal off a desired target and analyzing how the object's motion has altered the frequency of the returned signal.

The multiple reflections of the radar beam causing the hail spike. Generally known as hail spikes, these are the result of energy from the radar hitting hail, very heavy rain, or in extreme cases, debris being lofted by a tornado, and being reflected to the ground, where they reflect back to the hail and then to the radar as in the image on the left.
