I have been staying out the rain here since March. I won't even let my dog go out in it. She just has to cross her legs and wait for the runoff to thin out.

We all knew this was going to happen. Its just going to keep getting worse and spreading all over. Fukushima Has been leaking radiation since March, and still is. What makes you think its just going to go away..

I will answer for you

2,400CPM = 1 mR/hr
1.78 mR/hr * 2400 CPM = 4272 CPM

so that would be about 4272 CPM (Counts Per minute)

anything over 100 CPM is considered Alert Level:

Alert Level means Radiation is above normal background levels.

Keep in mind that is accumulated radioactive dust/grime. He took a large surface, concentrated the surface grime then tested it. It is a great way to see if there is radiation in your area but you really can't compare it to background. It needs to be compared to other cars wiped down in different states which read zero.

This is bad if it is a true test regardless.

Could just be a small pocket moving through, the real question is how long will St. Louis remain at this level..

Here is the radiation page I trust most, and have never seen over 60 cpm at ground level yet, but it's possible..

Not that they're completely trustworthy, but they will show spikes, but the damn thing shuts down a lot for 'maintenance' or whatever.

Of course, it wasn't up and running today for St. Louis. I'm shocked, SHOCKED, I tell you.

It's only rained once here in Dallas since June.

If there's radiation in the rain, someone doesn't want it falling here.
