It went away immediately between two images:

Radars can be weird sometimes.

I don't think it was actually anything, like smoke (would not go away so quick), fog (that fog would be very high), birds (way too big), chaff (something the military tests, that usually drifts it seems) or anything real. It disappeared too quick. And I didn't see it on adjacent radar. A lot of the radars though have other stuff that is not real on them though.

You can easily spot the weirdness on an image like this:

You can tell what is likely real and what is not. Although, you don't see those negative DBZ values much.
