Radioactivity forecast system down
Radioactivity forecast system down

A computer system that forecasts the spread of radioactivity has not been working due to malfunctioning monitoring posts around a troubled nuclear power plant in quake-hit Fukushima Prefecture.

The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency says it does not know when the system will be back in operation.

The system, called SPEEDI, predicts how radioactive substances will spread in case of radiation leakage from nuclear power plants, based on measurements taken at various locations, prevailing winds and other weather conditions.

SPEEDI data are intended to be used to draw up evacuation plans for residents around power plants in case of accidents.

I don't think so, the area around Fuku has values in between 20-40 and the table to the left shows the reactors or the vicinity of the reactors (me thinks), since the table is grouped into a set of 4 and 3. Four reactors are on one side of the plant and 2 are on the other side. I don't know what reactor 7 is supposed to be...

I believe our Japanese friend pointed out that we seem to be very self absorbed in the way that we continiously panic about "how will this effect me" and "if it dont directly effect me - well then there is no point knowing about it"

However I may be wrong...

'They've lost control': French claim Japan is hiding full scale of nuclear disaster as TWO more reactors heat up

* Workers battling nuclear meltdown briefly evacuated today after radiation levels increased
* French minister: 'Let's not beat about the bush, they've essentially lost control'
* Officials commandeer police water cannon to spray complex
* Attempts to dump water on reactors by helicopter fail
* Concern at radioactive steam leaking from reactor number three
* Two more previously stable reactors begin to heat up

Japan's stricken nuclear power plant was abandoned for hours today, as soaring radiation forced emergency workers to flee for their lives and authorities were reduced to spraying reactors with police water cannons.

All 50 emergency workers who had been fighting to keep overheating reactors cool were this morning pulled back 500 yards from the complex as radiation levels became too dangerous.

And in an extraordinary attack, the French government accused the Japanese of losing control of the situation and hiding the full scale of the disaster.
The sense of crisis at the nuclear plant has been growing since Friday’s tsunami, caused by a massive earthquake, knocked out the cooling systems essential to prevent the plant’s uranium and plutonium fuel rods from overheating and melting.

Meanwhile, France’s Nuclear Safety Authority said the disaster now equated to a six on the seven-point international scale for nuclear accidents, ranking the crisis second only in gravity to Chernobyl in 1986.
