I'm right in the path so I'll find out what causes it in a couple of hours.

While the tornado in Auckland packed winds of more than 200kmh, some of the most damaging winds were the "striaght gusts" which came immediately before and after the mini twister, MetService said.

I don’t have training or experience in reading radar returns, but I think no.Could the circled red dot be a waterspout?
I’m guessing the small “heavy” precipitation shown by the red dot in the right image could be an artifact – an error in the doppler radar image processing program output showing a strong return where there is actually nothing – but I think its more likely to be a return from a non-liquid object, such as an aircraft, that the software has failed to correctly subtract from the image.The doppler image may be an artefact.
