Radiation From Fukushima Would Take 7 Days To Reach U.S.

Prevailing wind conditions would send fallout drifting towards west coast cities

Radioactive particles from the stricken Fukushima nuclear facility would take around a week to reach Alaska and eleven days to reach Los Angeles, according to an Accuweather.com analysis, which highlights the fact that prevailing winds over the region would send any potential fallout from the crisis-hit plant drifting towards west coast cities in the United States.

Given the fact that many analysts believe the Japanese government is grossly understating the amount of radioactive particles released by the two separate explosions to affect the Fukushima plant, one which occurred Saturday and one earlier today, monitoring stations in Alaska will not know if there is a threat from such radiation until Saturday at the earliest.

“Radiation detected at the Fukushima plant on Monday is twice the maximum seen so far,” the BBC is reporting, citing Kyodo News.

An Accuweather.com analysis highlights how prevailing wind trajectories would take the radiation from a westerly direction towards the west coast of the United States.

“A typical wind trajectory across the Pacific is westerly, since there is often a large dome of high pressure over the central Pacific and an area of low pressure in the Gulf of Alaska,” writes meteorologist Meghan Evans.

Today’s localized winds are set to carry any radiation out into the Pacific from a north westerly to south easterly direction. However, “The wind direction will switch to an onshore direction Monday night into Tuesday, threatening to send the radiation toward the population,” writes Evans.

“This is not good news, since an onshore direction would blow most of the radiation toward populated areas. An added threat is that with higher elevations just about 4 miles inland from the power plants, if a temperature inversion sets up in the atmosphere, radiation could be trapped.”

The worst case scenario is that localized winds could take the fallout south to Tokyo, and the prevailing westerly winds could also carry upper atmosphere particles towards the U.S.

It would take roughly seven days for the radiation to reach Anchorage, eight days until it reached Honolulu, ten days for Seattle and eleven days before it hit Los Angeles, according to figures calculated by Expert Senior Global Meteorologist Jim Andrews.

Assurances from officials that any radiation would dissipate over the Pacific Ocean before reaching the United States are tenuous given the fact that pollution from Chinese coal factories, traveling significantly greater distances, routinely hits California.

“Previous studies have documented that dust from Asia — especially from deserts and industrial regions of China — routinely crosses the Pacific Ocean on prevailing winds to sully the air over the western U.S.,” highlights Massie Santos Ballon, a student in the Science Communication Program at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

The Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has also studied how, “About a third of the airborne lead particles recently collected at two sites in the San Francisco Bay Area came from Asia.”

Weather conditions will hugely influence where any potential radiation falls. If there is a significant amount of rainfall, which has been forecast for the next few days, the majority of the radiation will fall in a localized area. However, drier conditions will allow any radiation to travel much further.

As we featured in our earlier report, nuclear expert Joe Cirincione also fears that radiation from the Japanese nuclear plant could also reach the west coast.

When Fox News host Chris Wallace questioned whether radioactivity could travel thousands of miles across the Pacific, Cirincione responded, “Oh, absolutely. Chernobyl, which happened about 25 years ago, the radioactivity spread around the entire northern hemisphere. It depends how many of these cores melt down and how successful they are on containing it once this disaster happens.”

Concern surrounding the likely path of any radiation is emphasized by the fact that the French embassy is now, “Advising its citizens to leave Tokyo and its surroundings in case a cloud of radiation heads to the city.”

   So it appears the French aren’t stupid and know what is going on. Sounds like wise advice to me. Pack some potassium iodide with you.

   Hopefuly, the following will help a number of people prepare, we can overcome what could very well be ahead of us.

   If you apply liquid organic iodine/iodide to a bandaid and apply it to your skin, your body will absorb only what it needs to maintain healthy thyroid levels. I tried this, a few years ago, after reading it in a natural health book by Dr. Janet Maccaro; I had to re-apply it for 3 days before my body stopped absorbing the iodine. I check my levels every 3 months or so by applying a bandaid of iodine and so far my body has yet to absorb the amount that it did initialy. I believe this to be a safe way to make sure you have good levels of iodine/iodide in your thyroid.

   I have greater concern for people consuming spiralina and sea kelp. THINK!!! Sea animals are mysteriously dying and washing up on the beach. If our oceans are toxic, and I have reason to believe that they are, sea plants will also be absorbing those toxins.

   Herbs such as cilantro, thyme, milk thisle, betonite clay, and cinnamon are known to help counteract and remove heavy metals, chemicals and radiation poisoning from the body. Take what ever substance with a mixture of raw organic butter and raw honey to taste. Only do this for a short term, no more than a week, commonsense moderation is key. The butter works in the body as the mechanism to get the substance to the cells, the cells release the poison into the butter fat, the sealed toxic fat is then moved safely out of the body. DO NOT substitute margarine for butter, it is a toxic GMO product that causes damage in the body. It is now known that this type of oil is the likely cause of cardiovascular disease.

   I hadn’t thought about the kelp being contaminated, but you’re likely right. I may try the iodine technique you mentioned and save the potassium iodide pills I’ve got for another day or someone else.

   I am a survivor of the incompentency of the medical establishment, just as many others have; people such as Dr. Janet Maccaro, and Aajonus Vonderplanitz. For 20 years I have been seeking and learning ways to heal my body and maintain my health. I have not seen a doctor in 20 yrs, and, I have eliminated many ailments on my own. I am very sensitive to chemicals and I found that I couldn’t handle either sprilina or sea kelp. Mabye it was the batch I tried, others seem to be getting along ok with it.

   I encourage you to look up Aajonus, he lives in California. When I saw that he has been relentlessly attacked for his experience in healing, I thought that this guy is probably onto the truth. He was given 2 months to live @ the age of 21, he is now pushing 60 and he looks like he is in his 40′s. Google: life-enthusiasts, articles, recipe for living without disease, Aajonus Vonderplanitz. It’s a very good read.

   I feel now as I did on Sept. 11/01. I can hardly breathe for the grief. Both of these events have been life changing for me, and for many, many others.

   My heart is breaking for the Japanese people, and the surrounding nations. May God in His great mercy spare a multitude there, and should it travel across the Pacific to us, that we will not only be well prepared but also spared.

   I no longer waste energy arguing with those who are determined to be athiests, I used to be one. The truth about the existance of God has been readily available in America for all to choose to read it. It is a sad truth that most of us must learn things the hard way, I know that I had to. I hope that they all get it, and soon, very soon!

   @ Dragon, I am well aware of Dr. Mercola, and he is good. But, I must say that I have attained more knowledge from the depth of Mike Adams site, Naturalnews. Research through the archives, by just typing butter, or whatever. You will find great depth, weigh it all out and discern viable truth.

   Aajonus, is the one that has impressed me most. I have never met him, probably never will, but, his life story has blown me away. He has helped 1000′s upon 1000′s regain their lives worldwide. Yet, his greatest achievement is the rescue of his son. The doctors had labeled his son brain dead and recommending pulling the plug. Aajonus, literally faught through all the condiscending arrogance and was given the open door to work with his son. He relays the story in his first book a novel, “Out of the Grips of Disease and Death”. Knowledge, is truly power.

   Everything I know and recommend, I have tried and learned from somewhere else. There is so much out there available to us, and, so many people to learn from, we just have to take the time to seek it, and learn from it.

   the problem is that if there is not electricity flowing to the plants from coal burners or off the grid . . .

   so if the wires have been damaged which feed the plant, the situation is likely going to degrade . . .

   You are correct about that!

   There seem to be very few “manual override” options in most nuclear reactors, because such measures would require one or more folks to be directly exposed to the hazardous radiation by being close enough to exact those types of measures!

   Let me be the first to call BULLSHIT to the Japanese Govt when they claim these incidents are not on a level of Cheroynobal. Although the design is different and much safer than the Cheronobal reactors . The fact seems to be that they are in a meltdown. Since it takes 100 days to cool them down and they lost the ability to pump water after 3 days . You do the math. They are in the process of meltdown. And peoples lives are at risk. The Power companies are gonna down play it. Why because they are responsible for this bull shit. It’s the greed of Mankind and the forced servatude of his fellow man that has cause d this accident. we could be run completely on Solar or wind or water enerrgy sources. However the Elite have to have a sytem in place so they can milk the general public dry of their money. Systems that don’t take your money are bad. So we can see what the outcome of the Elites greedy schemes are once again.

   Also Just the meer possiblity of an explosion at a nuclear power plant is terrible. The plants are full of all types of radioactive waste. Which would spread every where. in all forms Alpha Beta Gamma.
   Dust , Gas , Radiation Waves . For instance a pack of cigarettes contains alpha Radiation . At 25,000 counts above back ground using an HP 210 Geiger counter. however your skin is a natural barrier so to hold a pack of cigarettes is safe. However to light and then in hale the fumes is not. So if you have particulate radiation in dust. if your 20 miles away your safe . However if that dust gets pickup in the wind and you then inhale it. you are not safe. So when officials say back ground readings are normal. Hell yeah if your 20 miles away theirs no gamma coming at you. Which is like Xrays. But on site you could still have vertual diaster of all types of radiation contamination that can get in the wind and the water. So I hope the people of Japan read this. They are not Safe. While we in th USA need to be concerned.

    It must be great to be a globalist insider. Everything just mysteriously aligns itself to your advantage, even when you purportedly had nothing to do with it. They shut us out from real knowledge like HAARP, of which could have assisted in detecting shuch a disaster in advance for all we know. Speaking of which is their anybody keeping an eye on that particular entity? Am I suposed to assume that there is no researcher out there that could offer some eye witness testiomny regarding the activities of HAARP and the advanement of electro magnetic frequency altering mechanisms that could very well split the planet in half? Am i suposed to assume that there is no evidence to suggest that HAARP could have induced a natural disaster such as this one? Oh, but it must be the uhhhh pseudo scientific backed mysterious ghost planet playing footsy with the sun. Gimee a break.
    Japan should have been buying oil from us this whole time. That would have been a win for both countries. Of course we all know that the globalists hate any cost efficient, safe, abundant source of energy such as oil. They shut us out from oil, then they use goverrnment subsidies to build a myriad a nuclear time bombs all over the planet called nuclear reactors all fo which are just waiting to go off. Now we will be expected to abandon nuclear energy after we have become heavily dependant on it. Abandoning such a resource without reversing the crony capitalist dictatorship that has destroyed our acces to coal will be the final straw that sends us plummeting into the stone age. Remember, fear is the strongest form of mind control. Don’t let them scare you into giving up your freedom and private property when they finally decide to exploit this disaster, should be any minute now.

    If HAARP was suddenly activated indefinitely before and durring the qauke then that is all the evidence i need to know who is responsible. I just wish Alex would contribute more research into the matter or use his status to dig up an ex-researcher for HAARP. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that he is forgetting the possibility of a technocratic component to the equation. This disaster can easily end up becoming a huge distraction from globalist activity, especialy if PP keeps rehashing the intergalactic doomsday scenerio. If Alex continues to perpetuate that scenerio for the next week or so then i can’t in good conscience continue to support Jones. I hate to admit that.

This is especialy true in most mojor cities where nuclear power plants provide jobs and a steady supply of local revenue, an ideal place to murder mass quantities of people becuase these areas are densley populated. These disasters will keep occuring and the mindless zombies will continue to blame these earthquakes on solar flares, while they beg the globalist elites to rid them of nuclear energy. They will be begging those pathetic insecure little pricks to help bring about the new stone age where information, critical thinking, knowledge, history, literature, freedom, mobility and human potential is lost, gone forever form our grasp.

    A couple of facts:
    Japan discovered the “jet stream” in the early 1940′s and used it to transport bomb carrying balloons during WWII.
    It took as little as three days to travel from north of Tokyo to Washington (state) and Oregon.
    How far did the balloons travel? Montana, Northern Alberta, Sasketchewan, Texas, Colorado, Arizona, California . . . . . . . and the farthest: 10 miles outside Detroit, Michigan.
    They were going to launch them with germ warfare microbes instead of timed bombs (which they did against the Soviets) until the U.S. bombed their facility to hell.
    So, yes, it’s not propaganda that the radiation could reach us. Oh, yeah. During the 60′s, when China was doing above ground nuke testing, we would get weather reports of radiation reaching us in the Seattle region

    I am in NJ. If people start dying on the west coast I am going to eastern ME. When I moved to the east coast I figured that the country started here and it will probably end here. I didn’t think it was going to go down this way. It would probably be better to be in the southern hemisphere but that is not practical for me.
