Weird Weather display

Going through some rain yesterday I was surprised to see this on my Skyview Classic. It eventually went back to normal. Anybody know what would cause this?

This is explained in the User's Manual, albeit not very well. It's just NEXRAD data that is being uploaded by ADS-B that hasn't yet been uploaded for the purple blocks. It'll fill in eventually.

The magenta strips are areas where radar data is not available yet, still uplinking to you.

Must be an echo in here...
