Still in chaotic situation...










Shelters at disaster areas are facing bigger challenge now...temperature  drops below freezing point making the situation quite more uneasy due to a very cold weather very winter-like.

Stock market went down obviously because of the present predicament Japan is facing.



Still having aftershocks...

Alarm on TV just announced a coming sudden jolts...so everyone is advised to take precautions...

Normally this happens because after that massive earthquake from the sudden and abnormal shifting of plate downward and pushing the adjacent plate upward that caused the great shocking tsunami previously, soil must have been gone softer and now adjusting to it's position.


It's always something!




Had my late breakfast: fried egg, pan de americano with butter...and coffee again...plus 2 headache pills. 



***weather has plunged to a very low level to affected areas...like Minami, about 0 degrees so snow is falling, cold weather poses a great risk to health for the evacuees...


***chilly air is up again here which is very unusual 'coz spring will be coming at the end of this month.  


***around 8:30am smokes billowing at the facility specifically Reactor #3  early this morning was observed and investigation again is underway...radiation around the main gate reading sharply increase to 800microSv as of 10:30am today. 


***They are considering to spray water with boric acids from above to hamper nuclear reaction.


***there is a tear from Reactor #2 vessel yesterday...


***operation on site has been hampered due to high readings of radiation, so workers are moved to a safer location.


***flames at reactor #4 is on fire still as of yesterday...walls are already broken, since water has gone to a severe level that caused hydrogen to generate and rods started to melt. Making 3 & 4 reactor now badly damage and no walls to hold the leak.


***announcements about radiation reading make me all the more dizzy each day since am keeping eye and ear on the reports all day long via NHK World...it flactutes every hour...and with 4 reators at that...it's synonymous to 4 active Pinatubo spewing ashes of wraths...considering there's still #5 and #6...wheeeew!

Breaking News Today in Japan!!!

FOR THOSE WHO LIVE NEAR FUKUSHIMA POWER PLANT  O N L Y:

Evacuation within the 20km raduis is urged!

DO NOT GO OUTSIDE! KEEP WINDOWS SHUT! NO HANGING OF CLOTHES OUTSIDE.


PM NAOTO KAN is requesting people to move out of 20km radius from the power plant which is in very dangerous situation...so as to avoid the leakage of the radiation. Reactor#2 reactor is in serious condition. This is based on the experts. We live totally far from the power plant but we follow every direction since we do not know where the wind may blow. Just to be safe we will try to be inside the house no matter how far we are from the plant.

Reactor#4 seen currently burning...at the time of quake this out of order and not in use. Reactor#1 & #3 (small level of neutron radiation was detected)  hydrogen has been generated so radiation has been released...Reactor#2 sound of blast has been heard today. Water injection is continuously done to cool down the systems.

50 employee who are directly injecting water to the container has been evacuated.


***400millisievert (mSv) of radiation is being emitted by Reacto r#4 which is badly crippled by the massive earthquake. Neutron radiation is positively detected!


PS/ This reports are according to what I carefully gathered from the brief message delivered by the Prime Minister of Japan live on tv today. So I limit the details lest I give the wrong details of the message...
