Alaska urged to prepare for North Korean nuclear attack as residents told to have emergency stash of food and water
The country will NOT attempt evacuations if North Korea fires a nuclear missile, emergency planners have warned - as families are urged to stock up with emergency rations
Alaska is being urged to prepare for a North Korean nuclear attack - amid fears that a warhead 'could reach residents in 20 minutes'.
The country will NOT attempt evacuations if maniac despot Kim Jong-un fires a nuclear missile, emergency planners have warned.
Jeremy Zidek, from the state’s disaster planning team, urged locals to shelter in place should an attack happen - rather than risk being caught in the open for the blast.
He also urged families to have an emergency stash of food and water, flashlights and radios.
And while he insisted that Alaska was unlikely target for a nuclear strike, Mr Zidek admitted that the state’s defensive facilities could be picked for attack.
Alaska is home to Fort Greely, where the US has interceptor rockets designed to destroy incoming intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs).
The state also has missile defences at the Pacific Spaceport Complex as well as radar warning systems at Clear Air Force Station.
“We have the missile defence system here,” Mr Zidek said. “We have missiles and radars in number of different locations.”
“Perhaps there would be some type of attack on those military facilities to try to hinder our ability to react to any missile launches.”
Mr Zidek also warned that Alaska no longer retains bomb shelters and that there would be no new measures to deal specifically with the nuclear threat.
He said: “There could be evacuation notices put in place but are we going to be able to get that amount of lead time...

P!
The Gold Rush boys won’t be happy if they’re forced to shut down. Gotta build that other dredge you know.
Bump
Maybe some potassium iodide, too?
shelter in place.
What next, curfew?
Duck and cover!
With Parker’s nose, he won’t need a snow plow.
crouch under your desk. for the next 60 years.

Anyway, the property value in impacted area will plummet and may not recover (probably in our lifetime.)
Alaska is not going to be attacked by N. Korea with ICBMS. If anything it’s likely to be a well coordinated multi-strike from modified Submarines and smuggled in stationary nuclear weapons.
under those little desk in school//lol
Uhhh....I live in Big Lake, north of Wasilla, and there is ZERO news about this, and even if there was nobody will do anything except the whiny crybaby snowflakes in Anchorage.
Is there anything i can do to make, induce or suggest to Kimmy to yes, go right ahead and fire your missiles to Alaska.
Its really big, more than twice the size of Texas.
I have read some reports that state if you can stay indoors for the first 2 or 3 days, with windows covered with plastic and some other precautions, you substantially reduce your exposure to fallout. In long run may not change the inevitable health issues, but it is better than getting an an alert and attempting to evacuate where you get stuck on a road with other people and full exposure.
I think it is good to be prepared with water, food and medical supplies to shelter in place regardless—esp. in Alaska.
Lol, Schnozzle.
So Alaska is going to allow each resident to take two moose this year?
Would the snow and ice melt!
