Nine comets have been detected with either the Arecibo (12.6 cm wavelength) or Goldstone (3.5 cm) radar systems. Included are six nucleus detections and five detections of echoes from coma grains. The radar backscatter cross sections measured for the nuclei correlate well with independent estimates of their sizes and are indicative of surface densities in the range of 0.5 to 1.0 g cm-3. Like most asteroids, comets appear to have surfaces that are very rough at scales much larger than the radar wavelength. Coma echo models can explain the radar cross sections using grain size distributions that include a substantial population of cm-sized grains. A long term goal of the cometary radar program has been the high resolution imaging of a cometary nucleus. Eleven short period comets are potentially detectable over the next two decades a few of which may be suitable for imaging. We are always waiting for the arrival of a new comet with an orbit that brings it within 0.1 AU of the earth.

Observations of thunderclouds obtained with a 3-cm height-finding radar set are used to obtain a description of the vertical shear of thunderclouds. Several photographs are given which show the shearing of the radar clouds. A scattergram of wind shear plotted against echo shear is presented and shows that the two variables are related, with the former exceeding the latter in almost all cases. Scatter-diagrams are given which verify that strong vertical wind shear tends to restrict the growth of thunderstorms. A series of radar cross sections illustrates the displacement of the upper part of a thundercloud which is subjected to wind shear, and the growth of another cloud column from the lower part of the thundercloud.
