We were in this scenario last year, when NK launched a missile towards Hokkaido, and we were on the west coast, just next to a nuclear reactor.
After getting the altert, we put on clothes, went downstairs to the sturdiest room, stuck on the TV to the NHK news, and waited. The missle plopped into the ocean off the coast, and we had tempura for lunch.
There's really nothing you can do in these situations but stay calm and do the small, sensible things.
Modern nuclear reactors won't meltdown if shot, just turn off so only gonna be more dangerous if they specifically target electricity infrastructure
Sure, but a nuclear power plant could be a potential target. The nuclear warhead is the concern.
If someone drops a nuke I think you will have bigger problems than the lack of electricity
That's exactly what I'm saying... If you live near a nuclear power plant, you're a potential target. Cause the bomb doesn't destroy the plant, it destroys the city it's in and several towns around it.
The plant is a target because hitting the plant makes the power go out for the whole region, but your problem is the warhead. Meltdowns don't factor in at any point.
