I saw meteorologists publicly shame rogue APs by name. This implies they do have means (directional antenna) to probe the source of interference and get information such as AP name, MAC address and distance.

They wouldn't get this from the actual radar though. It must have been the result of further investigation.

I was mainly referring to the 'radars are good at pinpointing things' comment from the OP :) I wanted to clarify that an AP on this frequency won't show up as a dot on a radar screen. For the distance to be captured it must have an actual reflection.

You can even see some of the lines I mentioned in that pic!

Radar receivers have a secondary output (or at least a waveguide coupler) where you can connect arbitrary equipment. So you connect standard wifi card to it, enable monitor mode and listen to all the MAC addresses and SSIDs (if they are not hidden) - directly though the giant radar antenna. (I really need to try it with our radar, I currently only detect packets based on their wide spectrum, but I have never decoded them)

There is even a software-based wifi demodulator (https://www.nuand.com/bladerf-wiphy/) so you can try to decode it from the IQ data, but they usually don't have enough bandwidth.
