Example embodiments relate to techniques for detecting adverse road conditions using radar. A computing device may generate a first radar representation that represents a field of view for a radar unit coupled to a vehicle and during clear weather conditions and store the first radar representation in memory. The computing device may receive radar data from the radar unit during navigation of the vehicle on a road and determine a second radar representation based on the radar data. The computing device may also perform a comparison between the first radar representation and the second radar representation and determine a road condition for the road based on the comparison. The road condition may represent a quantity of precipitation located on the road and provide control instructions to the vehicle based on the road condition for the road.
