<![CDATA[Is this a satellite error?]]>Today around 11.50 CET this phenomenon was seen in the south of Norway. The 'circle' remained stable for some time and suddenly disappeared with a kind of oscillating appearance and disappearance of recipitation around the place where the circle was. Is this software error or some disturbance at one of the satellites? I found this on 2 other weather apps as well.

this is radar, not satellite by the way)

Of course, excuse for my negligence, it were indeed radar images.
I had indeed seen the 'needle'-like interferences as you showed over Argentina, but not these circular ones I had not seen before. Thanks for explaining!

Radar interference happens quite a lot. These are some other examples:
