Tubby Beaver 209 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 hi Echi, I'm really sorry for your loss and the heartbreak of 1 person still unnaccounted for, please don't take our joking to be making light of the terrible situation up there, its a response to the fear mongering Western Media that drove many previously sane people to flee by describing Tokyo and the rest of Japan as going to be a burned out, Nuclear Desert.

Quote: Grayish smoke seen billowing from Fukushima No. 3 reactor building TOKYO, March 21, Kyodo Grayish smoke was seen billowing from a building that houses the No. 3 reactor of the troubled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station on Monday, plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Co. said. After the smoke was spotted at the southeast of the building around 3:55 p.m., TEPCO said it had temporarily evacuated its workers from the site as it assessed the situation. The amount of smoke later decreased, TEPCO added. Following a magnitude 9.0 quake and ensuing tsunami on March 11, cooling functions of the No. 3 reactor were lost and its core is believed to have partially melted. At present, coolant water is pumped into the reactor and a pool for spent nuclear fuel. The roof and upper walls of the building that houses the No. 3 reactor were blown off by a hydrogen explosion last week. On Sunday, pressure in the No. 3 reactor's containment vessel temporarily rose, but it later stabilized. From kyodo Link to post Share on other sites

@tokyo 14 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 That geiger counter page thing is showing a bit of an increase. What is an "alarming" rise? Just now it's a steady and slight going up... Link to post Share on other sites

Just now it's a steady and slight going up... 25cpm is about 0.25uSv, which is normal levels. I would say, if it got to 100, and stayed above 100 for a prolonger time, then it would be worrying.

RobBright 35 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 And the gradual, sorry, very slight rise, could be because of the rain. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 The grey smoke is probably the workers all having a fag on one of their coffee breaks. Or perhaps even the kettle. Link to post Share on other sites
