Abstract

A situation is described when the 3.2 cm high power radar at Safdarjung showed unusual ground coverage due to super-refraction near the earth’s surface.  It occurred after the passage of a frontal thunderstorm.  Super-refraction is generally associated with stability in the atmosphere.  A case is discussed in which super-refraction occurred in an atmosphere which sustained thunderstorm activity.
