A Twitter photo showing a “boiling sea” off the coast of Japan, near the Fukushima nuclear power plant with radiation leaks, has gone viral online.

It looks like a foggy picture , not seeing any boiling seas . The picture is taken too far away . Are there any close up where you can say FOR SURE its boiling . Personally I call BS , but then again I am not there .

Yea I really can't see the boiling, indeed it looks really foggy though....
I'm pretty sure a boiling sea would garner national attention, hey man! something's seriously wrong here.
The other problem, the biggest problem, is that it’s continuing, that the radioactive water is leaking out of this plant as fast as it’s leaking in. So, you’ve got something on the order of 400 tons to maybe even as much as a thousand tons of water a day leaking off of the mountains around Fukushima into the basement of this plant. Well, the basement is highly radioactive, because the containment has failed and radioactive material is leaking out from the nuclear core into the other buildings. That’s being exposed to this clean groundwater and making it extraordinarily radioactive.

Why is it impossible? I understand that such a large body of water boiling at any point could be unlikely, but impossible? When lava runs into the ocean is boils the area it hits, why can't the same thing be said for extremely hot radioactive waste runoff going into the ocean?

I may be wrong, but hasn't the radioactive runoff been increasing in overall temperature since it started running into the ocean?
