The jet stream is at 30,000+ feet over Japan. Very little, if any, material is carried that high. Even less would settle back to the surface at any particular location. The minute amount of material which has been detected on the west coast would have been carried by lower level winds.

A surface high pressure area developing to the northeast of Japan or a low pressure area to the northwest would create easterly low level winds which would carry fallout to the west. It is that which poses a danger, not the jet stream.

Here are my observations tonight....

Rapid City, SD - Beta Gross 82 CPM at 9:50pm (my time)


Rapid City, SD - Beta Gross 145 CPM at 5:23am (my time)


AND

Kearney, NE - Beta Gross 84 CPM at 11:20pm (my time)


Kearney, NE - Beta Gross 112 at 5:24am (my time)


And here is the jetstream

Oh, and I almost left out...

Omaha, NE - Beta Gross 40 CPM at 9:20pm (my time)


Omaha, NE - Beta Gross 74 CPM at 5:25am (my time)


I'm not suggesting there is cause for alarm, I'm just thinking there might be something to the theory of radiation traveling all the way over here. I haven't noticed any other substantial changes, but I'll keep watching...

I got a lot of screenshots, maybe I can post them later when I get up.

But the places we were watching earlier that were really high, have been falling back down rapidly.

And the places due East of those locations, are slowly getting exposed as the "wave" apparently hits them, and are starting to raise above 100.

After seeing this progress for over 8hours + of watching closely over a dozen sites, I now see there is a direct correlative pattern forming.

This is the fallout cloud. I am pretty damn convinced at this point. It really is happening right now.
It is over the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, and in *theory* Oklahoma but no available readings from Oklahoma currently.

You can claim all your denial you want, but you cannot explain this away so easily. There is like 100 of these meters nation wide. COINCIDENTALLY the only ones showing readings are forming a North to South wave-line that is crossing the US from West to East. It is really slow, like maybe 15-30mph tops.

I am confident that we can say this fallout wave is real, it is detectable RIGHT NOW, and the theory will almost certainly hold up to scrutiny and the meters further east will go up when the ones that are high now will decrease. It's a repeating pattern, and estimates based on it are proving accurate. You can predict the next city that will have high readings because it's due East of the hot spot.

You can claim whatever you want, but I am thanking the EPA.GOV for giving me updated information to watch this thing hit my country. And I will be seeking shelter, taking good showers, etc when this thing gets near my location tomorrow. I need to take precautions because I am directly in the fallout pathway.

If you don't believe this, watch the EPA readings and check all the sites, and watch it change exactly as predicted. It worked for me over the last 8-10hour period.
If you don't want to watch the evidence before your eyes, don't.

I am posting this information for any Americans/Canadians who want to watch this thing pass through their neighborhoods. Keep yourself informed, because the MSM is IGNORING this 100%.

I should also add that Wichita has stayed about the same all night, while the numbers to the north went up. This is kinda oddly consistent with the jetstream diagram posted above.

Wichita, KS

A superheated column of air will rise to the jet stream, IF these reactors meltdown, or lose any cooling for a long period of time.

If (very unlikely) there is a complete meltdown, literally tons of radioactive particulates could reach the jet stream.

In WWII the Japanese released balloons from Japan after studying the Jet stream, with the intent to start fires in the west coast USA using incendiary devices attached to these balloons... It took only 2 days for them to reach Oregon from Japan.

As long as things are stable, and cooling is maintained at these damaged reactors, then we have nothing to worry about in the western USA.

To assume that the worst can't happen, is completely foolish, and ignorant.

Phage, could you also answer this question:

Why? Isn't the Jet stream carrying the largest amounts of the fallout cloud over the pacific ocean directly towards North America and then onwards to Europe? Appears that's the case.

Now I do expect the wind to shift south of Fukushima soon, directly towards Tokyo, but it will still bend out towards the pacific yet again.

I don't even think the wind can go towards China from Fukushima. If so, I will admit ignorance on the subject but I am almost pretty sure the wind does not go that direction. (Jet Streams)

Yeah I checked again to make sure.
www.wunderground.com...

How could you have missed this Phage? There's no way China or Korea are down wind from this thing.





And also respond to FF's comment about how super heated air will travel into the jet stream:

I'm glad of this forum, where people post so much info. will someone make this simple for me to get my head round? The mox fuel produces alpha radiation I believe. Is it correct that there are only certain geiger counters that detact alpha? Are all the charts and things taking this into account?

Sorry if this is a gormless question.

Mine are working. I often refresh the page at the top of my browser. I couldn't get into their beta though. Today the option is missing to do so for me. It can take a few attempts to get it change, and sometimes it lags. I recheck high figures. Thats quite a lot of particles causing that radiation. And its like getting X-rayed many times in an hour. Also their particles drop out into the weather system and water, soil, lifestock, milk, and vegetation.

I did answer muzzleflash and so did FF.

There has been no catastrophic breach of the containment vessels. If there is, there is a chance that some material would make it to the jet stream. Such an event is unlikely.

And once again it seems to be necessary to point out that the EPA monitors are showing normal fluctuations in background radiation. They are not showing high levels. They are not recording the effects of fallout. You cannot look at a snapshot and say "ooooh! High levels!". You must look at historical counts.

Here are the counts before the earthquake and tsunami.

Jacksonville, Florida:

Raleigh, NC. Seems to have a calibration problem. Data is only available since March 18th and it's been showing those same high levels since then. So if there's a "wave of fallout" moving across North America it somehow got to North Carolina first.

There is going to be a lot of disagreement about what mox fuel, that shroom cloud from the beginning, second explosion, and over 11 000 officially acknowledged spent fuel rods, in a plant that has the potential of hosting over 600 000 with the math being done, in dire circumstances, can do.
We can debate that one enormously.

This thread is simple. Readings. And basically over 100 is a danger sign, officially its around 125, but most they noted on the radiation network and black cat what is normal, and 100 is a big concern.

The readings I'm taking are US Government ones.

So this is actually, for those past believing officials on a grass roots monitoring of the problem they're not discussing.

A problem that yesterday officials said they didn't know how long US levels would stay "safe" by their sunbathe near a nuclear facility according to Anne Coulter's advice, mentality.

There is no need for a skeptic to come on at all. Unless he's putting his own regions stats up and noting other high ones and joining the network of those giving real alerts in an attempt to save real lives from cancer, and sickness, and rather be over - cautious than under. We all value our health, and our childrens/families/neighbors, or should.
