Here's a new video showing that, if the sunburn doesn't kill you on Pacifica Beach, radiation likely will. CPM above 800 !!! https://www.youtube.com/user/FrostyFjords?feature=watch If govt. was doing it's job, they'd erect signs saying: "Keep Out: Nuclear Hotspot". Where else do we have hotspots? Anyone with a gieger counter near the west coast of Canada and US is urged to do similar videos and post them on Youtube. Let's get the word out: this is alarming!!! I'm taking mine down to the beach in Vancouver, BC later today. At least I'll know what to benchmark against. |

Here's the follow up: At Dundarave Beach nr Vancouver, BC today, I measured average 37.4 CPM during a 10 minute timed count 6'ft from the water's edge. Compares to 31.3 back at the house. (i.e. 20% elevated). Will compare over time as the plume is expected to come ashore during 2014.

Reno...I'm noticing that the avg. CPM for Reno, Nv. is higher than any other site on the West Coast. I'm new to this and trying to figure all this out. I can't understand why Reno's CPM avg is so high compared to West Coast beaches, even areas around Fukushima in Japan? Thoughts?? Thanks! |

Chealseebree; If no one has gotten back to you on why Reno make be higher than the west coast it could be the "luck" of the jet stream flow that day, week, month, etc... or there is something closer to Reno that is causing spikes like a nuclear leak or manufacturing leak that uses radioisotopes, even our medical garbage is radioactive so it depends on what is close to you. However, Jetstream patterns are not to be overlooked. |

There are so many different sources that it could be, it makes my head spin.  Nuclear testing from many years ago can still be one of those sources too. |

If we don't start getting or measuring values, we'll never know or be able to guess the sources. This all makes me sad too; a big sense of loss for my kids: no Pacific swimming or eating fish in their future. |

I live up in Alaska where there are no nuclear reactors. My average background is 24 CPM. At the beach (Cook Inlet) a 10 minute timed test was 28 CPM. |

otnot Thanks for testing. No nukes here in BC either. Let's keep an eye on it; I'll be back out there on the beach in the next month or two. |
