LOS ANGELES Air pollution regulators in Southern California say they have not detected increased levels of radiation from the damaged Japanese nuclear reactors.
The South Coast Air Quality Management District said Friday radiation measured at its three sites are not higher than typical levels.

We're about to get major drenched here,, so any residual partuculate matter is likely tog et great diluted the next few days in California.
You may panic.. now.
Oh wait..
Hang on Norm. Gotta go find my Panic Ensemble. :)
BRB...or not.
I'm getting ready to move the truck in the garage if it starts hailing or the ice pellets are glowing . :-)
I feel safe until the government says I should feel safe.
We're all gunna
LOL...yes, someday, but probably not from “de Plume”
Having grown up in the 50s/60s or atmosphere was full of nuclear weapons tests.
Over 2 thousand at least.
These all were bigger than Japans two, many were in the megaton range instead of kiloton. Noone suffered radiation death.
Media has blown this way out of line. Bleeds it leads syndrome.
Look Boss! Da Plume! Da Plume! (/herve)
You said it. I came onboard in ‘54..

hilarious! I actually heard on the news today that people in my brilliant blue state were running out and buying gas masks and hazmat suits. Yes, gas masks...
“If you or any of your loved ones has suffered mental distress due to radiation reaching California, YOU may be entitled to monetary compensation. Contact the law office of....”
I don't feel good and someone is gonna pay!
I like the way you think...
The radioactive material (if there is any) is particles in the air...gas/face masks are the defense for airborne particles.
I signed up for EPA “RadNet” access a few days ago...readings for the CA Central Valley were normal up until last night, then “Beta Gross Count Rate (CPM)” started rising somewhat at about 11pm PDT...I get up this morning, and overnight all EPA monitoring sites south of S.F. are offline because “RadNet data is undergoing quality review.” Does not inspire confidence.
The EPA opened up “RadNet” to the public as of today. See: https://cdxnode64.epa.gov/radnet-public/showMap.do
bottom feeders? They got to make a living somehow...
And all those crazy Californians rushed down to the beaches, hoping for a radiation buzzz...
C-R-A-Z-Y
Geez, look at the boobs on that guy to the lower right.
The radiation did it.
DANG... He needs a Manzier!
I'm LMAO at all the wussies! I remember the media tracking really hot radiation from Russian bomb tests that dumped strontium 90 on American crops. And our own tests in Nevada pumped very large amounts of dangerous radiation into the atmosphere. The Japanese event, so far, doesn't even come close to those days. There's a whole lot of unjustified fear-mongering going on.
