As someone who lives in Shanghai, 1850km away, I wonder if I should go a bit further away as a precaution? During the Chernobyl accident the nuclear clouds reached up to 2500 kms away from Chernobyl...


You should probably move away to avoid the air pollution in Shanghai.


Dominant winds go to the Pacific, even if there is meltdown and containment breach, California is more at risk than China is.


As someone who lives in California, 8800km away, I wonder if I should go a bit further away as a precaution...? ;-)

Depends on the prevailing winds, which I think generally go from west to east in the northern hemisphere, but no idea how things actually work in that area.
