If you live in or near a nuclear target area then learn when to evacuate.
The nuclear targets map shown bellow is based on a number of factors like military installations, nuclear weapons storage and silo locations, bases, cities, etc.. No doubt there are not all of them, as well as other probable strategic locations, but it’s simply food-for-thought.
The primary targets will likely be military installations, while a secondary wave will broaden in scope. A third wave would likely involve strategic bombers mopping up what’s left and probably big cities. The first and second wave could be all over in minutes to an hour.

yes! If it happens ... it happens!
yes!!! the soundtrack at the end of Dr. Strangelove. I’ve seen it decades ago. Love it!
I don’t know. It’s in the article. But probably, there won’t be any signs.
Or maybe the EMP one... everybody thinks that the next nuclear war will be preceded by an EMP to neutralize part of our nuclear response and missile defence shield
yea you’re probably right. The map is not very helpful.
and probably there won’t be any signs.

soo true! This is why terrorists only need one nuclear bomb!
But there are rattlesnakes. All one species: Great Basin.
Home of the Jarbidge Shovel Brigade?
yes, of course the US has a bomber fleet on stand-by, most ready to fly in minutes....where as the Russians have old technology, that could just make it to America, then to be shot down, long before they could bomb anything....but ICBMs are the real threat, many countries have the potential to fly ICBMs....North Korea, Iran,and Russia.....
That, I admit. Nevada has utterly stunning mountain vistas.
Some trees would be nice, though. Every time I find some trees in Nevada, they are just on the other side of the California border. It's like they actually went along the tree line to make the State line. It's weird.
And dawn and dusk are beautiful, and balmy and fun while they last. And a desert at night is great for stargazing.
But during the day... it's a blazing oven.
The country will be rebuilt by cowboy poets.
“Actually, Jarbone, Nevada has traditionally been the most distant place in the Lower 48 from effect of nuclear blast to be exact.
I think you mean Jarbidge.”
Never heard of it, so I looked it up on Google maps.
That switchback road to the east looks EPIC. Might have to take a detour next time I’m out that way to try driving it.
Yes.
Yes, Jarbridge.
But I found a place under some pinyon pines where I get two bars on my phone. So I can FReep! Haha! If you saw where I am right now, you'd laugh. Dictionary definition of middle of nowhere.
I think it really could survive a nuclear blast.
I’m Jealous. One of the few groups I’ve never gotten to see.
Although invoking the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, whereby events from his own timeline may differ from our own, Titor also expressed assurance that the differences were minimal. As such, his descriptions have been interpreted as predictions and compared with historical events since 2001.The most immediate of Titor's predictions was of an upcoming civil war in the United States having to do with "order and rights".[9] He described it as beginning in 2004,[10] with civil unrest surrounding the presidential election of that year. This civil conflict that he characterizes as "having a Waco type event every month that steadily gets worse"[10] will be "pretty much at everyone's doorstep"[9] and erupts by 2008.
As a result of the war, the United States splits into five regions based on various factors and differing military objectives. This civil war, according to Titor, will end in 2015 with a brief but intense World War III:
Titor refers to the exchange as "N Day". Washington, D.C. and Jacksonville, Florida are specifically mentioned as being hit. After the war, Omaha, Nebraska is the US's new capital city. Titor is vague as to the exact motivations and causes for World War III. At one point, he characterizes the hostilities as being led by "border clashes and overpopulation",[11] but also points to the present conflict between Arabs and Jews as not a cause, but rather a milestone that precedes a World War III.
Titor claimed that as a 13-year-old in 2011, he fought with the Fighting Diamondbacks, a shotgun infantry unit of Florida, for at least four years. However, in other posts he describes himself as hiding from the war.
Of course none of this happened.
Some of the supposed “targets” are ludicrous. For example, there’s a red dot along the Mississippi River between the Missouri Bootheel and Northwest Tennessee. The last target of military value, Eaker AFB (located near Blytheville, AR) shut down over 20 years ago. Dropping a nuke in that area would fry hundreds of catfish in the river and scorch some adjacent farm land, and that’s about it.
Likewise, there appears to be a red dot on Branson, Missouri. Guess the nuclear targeteers in Russia and/or China didn’t like their visit to the Ozarks, or they want to deny a post-apocalyptic vacation to surviving senior citizens.
Problems with the story[edit] Numerous commentators have pointed out the extensive similarities between the Titor story and Pat Frank's classic post-apocalyptic science fiction novel Alas, Babylon.[35] Among other similarities, Alas, Babylon takes place in a small river-side town in Florida just before and after a nuclear war and describes the struggle to survive as a family in the aftermath. In the book, the protagonist lives in the fictional town of "Fort Repose", while Titor claimed to live in the "Fort", formerly the University of Florida.
