For ONCE the news was not fear mongering about the slight chance of radiation making it over to CA (and the west coast of the US).
Last on the NBC weather Fritz explained the jet stream and how air/currents travel and emphasized there is very minimal risk of anything coming through the air and impacting us. I also decided that when Chris gets concerned I'll get concerned. |
I'm envisioning the next wave of promos with a bunch of mutants slogging through LA saying cheerily to the camera, "Fritz said it would be like this."

I was just reading that the people who are fleeing Tokyo by plane due to fear of radiation are exposing themselves to more radiation than if they stayed in Tokyo.
Largest increase in background radiation recorded in Tokyo: 1 microsievert per hour Average increase in background radiation when flying: 5 microsieverts per hour of flight (about the equivalent of one chest x-ray per hour). Oh the irony... |

Well, to be fair I'm guessing those who are leaving aren't leaving because of how bad it is now but how bad they fear it will become, depending on where your fears set that level, taking the increased short term increase of a flight makes perfect sense (even if the underlying estimates are irrational).
