17X Background Radiation in 5:30pm 2/4/12 Saint Louis Misting Rain

At 5:30pm we took a sample swipe from our truck and it returned a reading of 17 times greater than background radiation. The reading is significantly less than the 30-50X background measurement we had late yesterday evening; however, the reading is still somewhat high for a jetstream blowing out of the South West.

  1. Check it, Potrblog: http://youtu.be/nbuV8yqPBF4 That was Bldg. No. 4 on Monday. There was also a lot of news about the all time high temp. in Reactor No. 2 continuing into Tuesday.

    I believe we agreed as short as 4 days to the West Coast and 6 days to you. Watch out, and have your iodine tablets ready.

  2. BTW, the 30 to 50X background, was that out of the South West?
