Weather radar is mainly used for observation of meteorological phenomena like clouds and precipitation. It is frequently used to study microphyisical processes in thunderstorms, like hail genesis and associated electrification. Measurements of aligned particles cause by electric fields are only rarely reported. A theoretical description of the effects and how it influences the radar observables can be found in (Ryzhkov, 2001). Measurements of electric fields and lightning in clouds using circular polarization have been performed by (Krehbiel, et al., 1996). Nevertheless, no measurements using the common H/V polarization basis in C-Band have been reported, yet.
