This cannot be good!

Update: they have confirmed a problem and closed down the plant. It stores waste in underground salt cavern near Carlsbad, NM. Same plant where they had a truck catch fire underground a few weeks ago.

And here's the updated story

I've been monitoring the independent radiation readings from the area and it appears that they have this contained underground. As of noon today, no readings above ground have read above normal.

Another update...they are now getting readings above ground as of yesterday. I'll be keeping an eye on it. Funny thing was, the Carlsbad NM monitor was "unavailable" for two days (the radiation monitor I watch in that area.) It mysteriously re-appeared earlier today.

Better break out the iodine pills again. I took them after Fukushima, but stopped after a few weeks.
