A storm-like image appearing on radar has led inhabitants in the Midwestern region of the US to reexamine a mystery they thought they’d solved. Local reports indicate the radar anomaly came from a military aircraft, but it’s unclear where the aircraft could have originated.

A multicolored streak covering portions of radar in western Kentucky shocked the National Weather Service on Monday. The streak lingered for about 10 hours, even though there was absolutely no rain falling, reports Evansville Courier & Press.

Not only was the chaff stream visible on radars for 10 hours, but it spanned some 50 miles, causing one self-described US Army Airborne veteran to wonder on Twitter, “Chaff stream 50 plus miles??? Pretty damn weird for it to be that big.”

The question of what was appearing on the radar was thought to be solved by Eyewitness News meteorologist Wayne Hart on Tuesday: a source with experience in aviation said that authorities from Indiana’s Evansville air traffic traffic control center were claiming the streak was the byproduct of a C-130 military transport aircraft releasing chaff. Chaff clouds — releases of tiny strips of aluminum — have long been used as a way to throw off would be aircraft-detectors.
