Hurricanes and Typhoons
(If you live in Florida, you may have heard of these)

The terms "hurricane" and "typhoon" are regionally specific names for a strong "tropical cyclone".

Tropical cyclones with maximum sustained surface winds of less than 39 mph are called "tropical depressions" Once the tropical cyclone reaches winds of at least 39 mph they are typically called a "tropical storm" and assigned a name. If winds reach 74 mph), they are called:
"hurricane" (the North Atlantic Ocean, the Northeast Pacific Ocean east of the dateline, or the South Pacific Ocean east of 160E)
"typhoon" (the Northwest Pacific Ocean west of the dateline)
"severe tropical cyclone" (the Southwest Pacific Ocean west of 160E or Southeast Indian Ocean east of 90E)
"severe cyclonic storm" (the North Indian Ocean)
"tropical cyclone" (the Southwest Indian Ocean)

Sitrep: Fukushima

          

               This photo POSITIVE PROOF of PYROPHORIC fuel burn at fukushima.

SITREP: the quake and tsunami damaged 14 reactors. of those Five are still barely under control. Four of the five are still on emergency generator for thier cooling power. they are one quake away from meltdowns.
the japanese government, TEPCO and the U.S. government tried to cover up everything, but they have started releasing the truth in the last couple weeks.
there were THREE MELTDOWNS, maybe four. They still don't know about one.
THREE MELTDOWNS that have been confirmed. they have NO IDEA where those three reactor cores are.
ONE CORE has gone CHINA SYNDROME FOR SURE. they only say it is "OUT OF THE BUILDING"
All three are belching radiation as of this writing.
at least one has probably blown out into the Pacific ocean. the reactors were only a couple hundred yards from the sea. Japan lifts out of the sea as steep bluffs underwater. No one will confirm this but they do report about "mysterios boiling" of the sea adjacent to the site.
For the last couple of weeks they have been reporting, and showing on cam, periodic belching of dense smoke from the site.
I am ALONE in positing that the cores have reached groundwaterand become RADIOACTIVE GEYSERS.
The middle 1/3 of the main Island is now irradiated far beyond historic levels for evacuation zones like Chernobyl .
the radiation is SPREADING and is now south of Tokyo.
TOKYO is now at radiation levels 10 times above the Fukushima mandatory evacuation zone and 25 times above the Chernobyl evacuation zone. everyone in the main island has the "flue" which is the first symptom of radiation sickness. some have died. so far it has been cleanup workers ( five officially ), infants and the elderly. the official cause is PNUEMONIA. Hospitals refuse to treat radioactive patients.
Neighboring countries are reporting rising radiation levels in thier air and seafood.
Japanese products are being refused because they are radioactve. Especially by countries which experienced the results of Chernobyl.
Each time the geyser spouts there follows a RADIOACTIVE BLACK RAIN over a widespread area.
RECENTLY released U.S. reports, that were previously suppressed, showed there was WIDESPREAD contamination, 700% above normal, in the U.S.. from Alaska to Los Angelos. especially west of the rockies which seem to be slowing the weather and making the fallout fall.
 it has been detected in lesser amounts all the way across the canada/u.S. border area and has been detected in Europe too.
the saving grace for japan has been that the prevailing winds are offshore. but that presents a different set of problems.
the California sized debris field from the tsunami, on which the largest radiation releases fell, have already started arriving on beaches of the west coast of north america. everytime the geyser spouts the northwest get elevated radiation readings a few days later.
NOTHING IS BEING DONE!
NOTHING CAN BE DONE!
They have ABANDONED TO CHANCE at least THREE REACTORS.
There is NO END IN SIGHT for radiation releases.
increased  radiation levels in the northern hemisphere are certain.
Tokyo is toast !
Japan is toast!
soon the WEST Coast of North America will be toast !
later NORTH AMERICA will be toast !
then the Northern Hemisphere will be toast !

Fukushima is an EXTINCTION LEVEL EVENT !

GOOD LUCK !

update: third anniversary

the truth is getting out slowly. still now mention of the pyrophoric fuel burn.
