[ RadSafe ] Fwd: [New post] Raised radiation level found inMissouri Snow

[Brennan, Mike (DOH)]

I don't know the answer to this offhand, but how does the response of a GM tube change with temperature?  The reason I ask is that it is currently COLD in much of the Midwest, and it wouldn't surprise me if things are different at -20C.

This is being sent out with vivid radiation symbol on the side and the source probably has zero credibility but Word Press allows Christina MacPherson to fill the world with this most likely false or misleading information.  I certainly doubt both the snow and the San Francisco beach - doubt that any Federal officials have launched an investigation either.  WordPress should be held accountable for the constant diet of trash that comes out of this site and many other anti-nuclear blogs.

Here is direct YouTube link for DutchSinse's alleged radiation test in the St Louis snow -

Raised radiation level found in Missouri Snow

by Christina MacPherson

Missouri Snow Found to Contain Radiation DOUBLE Normal Amount http://www.darkpolitricks.com/2014/01/missouri-snow-found-to-contain-radiation-double-normal-amount/
More concerns about possible impact of Fukushima Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet.com January 6, 2014  Readings taken from snow blanketing St. Louis, Missouri contains double the normal radiation amount, once again stoking concerns that the ongoing Fukushima crisis is now firmly impacting areas of America.

The radiation return from the snow precipitation is returning DOUBLE the normal background amounts. Normal background in this area is approximately 30CPM,” writes YouTube user DutchSinse, alongside a video documenting the readings.

“This means small particles of radioactive material are indeed coming down in the precipitation. Past tests show around 30CPM in the same spot on a nice day with no precipitation,” he adds, noting that snowstorms in 2012 also showed alert level radiation readings.

As we reported earlier, Geiger counter readings taken on a beach in San Francisco returned results five times the safe level of normal background radiation, prompting federal officials to launch an investigation.

Whether such readings are linked to the ongoing Fukushima crisis is unknown, but the fact that officials in Japan have been duplicitous in downplaying the true scale of radiation releases at almost every turn has understandably fanned the flames of suspicion.

Last week it was reported that new plumes of radioactive steam were emerging from the crippled reactor number 3 at the plant, but TEPCO representatives refused to explain the cause.

A former Fukushima worker also recently revealed that duct tape and wire nets were used to “repair” leaking radioactive water tanks in
2012 as a cost cutting measure.

The Department of Health and Human Services has ordered 14 million doses of potassium iodide, the compound that protects the body from radioactive poisoning in the aftermath of severe nuclear accidents, but a DHHS official denied that the purchase was connectde to the Fukushima crisis.
