2. That's not a very helpful report
There are always minute levels of radiation--everywhere.

9. It's from Reuters, Kyodo and the city government.

What does it being a Tweet have to do with it?

There are conflicting reports, however. But that is par for the course with this kind of thing.

5. Tokyo weather:
Wind NE @ 14 mph.

Link to Tokyo weather and time site:

You can bet I am really watching the winds in Japan right now.

Probably not as intensely as Korea or China, tho.
