It seems that this is more of a meteorology specific mode and usage.

It also happens if receiver's noise exceeding the noise threshold.
Other "strange" images are:
Spirals, due to receiving another radar's transmitted pulse.
Radial spokes, due to WiFi 802.11N base units operating within wx. radar spectrum space (5600-5650 MHZ).
