this from WaPo earlier for reference:

- evac area was expanded because radiation was measured outside the plant
- loss of power caused loss of core cooling
- loss of power prevents planned release of steam in vessel

- diesel backup generators were flooded
- beyond the evacs, those within 16 mi radius have been told to stay indoors
