LOL Adub, I want my paycheck then man!
Read the Wiki, calm down, and if you're in Tokyo, visit relatives in the South, okay?
Man I wish I got paid to tell the truth on ATS

Radiation does not colour rain. Other substances - like soot or dust or pollen can. Whether those substances are radioactive is another matter. But the colour of rain does not in any possible way indicate radioactivity.

Radiation won't colour rain, but the source of the radiation may.
There's been a lot of uranium and plutonium going up in smoke at Fukushima.

Even at the height of pollen season in the UK, you never see anything that matches that description.

If the source creates radiation, would not the source be radioactive?
Following that logic, burned uranium and plutonium particulate would colour the rain and be radioactive

Read what the OP's link says and what we've said.
We are NOT disagreeing with you, just pointing out that the bulk of the "yellow ring" is pollen.
Are there radionucleides as well? Yes.
I've got a secret shill plan Adub-- let's argue it back and forth a lot so 420's thread makes front page
And let me repeat: if you're in Tokyo, go on vacation to Kyushu-- right now. Especially if you are pregnant or have little kids.
On March 22, 2011 I noticed many yellow puddles on my driveway during the rain. I took these pictures and also collected a sample. I have noticed in many news articles that people have been reporting yellow rain in Japan, Oregon, and elsewhere following the disaster at Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power complex. This has been officially attributed to pollen, not radioactive fallout. I found this explanation questionable,

Not to mention uranium is used to colour glass like a previous poster mentioned

I have a feeling you're a paid dis-info agent pollen in the winter able to turn the rain yellow your kidding right?
On the 4th of June 2004, a strange occurrence has unfolded at a housing estate in Tanjung Bungah where rain would leave yellow residue on vehicles parked in the open.
Yellow rain falls often in southeast Asia and and is believed to be caused by the excrement of wild honeybees contaminated by a fungal toxin.
