For five days ago a lot of dead marine animals have been appearing every morning on the beaches of Chancay, in the province of Huaral.
The species include sand beach on mollusks, crabs, shells, mussels and even sea birds, whose decomposed bodies are dragged by the tide to the area where swimmers are usually reported Canal N.
In this situation, the district municipality and residents of the area are organized each morning for cleanings that sometimes extend into the night.
However, during the morning come more animals. Specialists have not been able to explain the reasons behind this phenomenon.

FUKU??

Whats the most likely culprit?
FUKU??
Or seismic activity? Or...

Could El Nino be having any affect at this time?
The landscape along the beach also has a foul odor generated by the intense heat, scaring swimmers who intend to spend a moment on the edge of the beach. This has forced municipal workers to clean up the coast.
The purpose of cleaning is to prevent an epidemic that put in danger the health of vacationers and those who decide to camp for 2014.
Villagers demand to investigate this, because they believe it is a ecological attack and never have seen a similar event in recent years.

My belief is the radiation leak from Fukushima....but wait, this is nothing we have seen so far.
Soon, and my prediction for the future, is we will start seeing more marine mammals wash up on shores such as sharks, whales, and creatures never seen before from the depths of our beloved Pacific Ocean.
This is the first major evidence of a global catastrophe the government doesn't want us to know about....but word and evidence is piling up against Japan and its ongoing lie about having such leak "under control"
Possibility 1 - a meltdown is taking place
The Reactor 3 fuel storage pond still houses an estimated 89 tonnes of the plutonium-based MOX nuclear fuel employed by the reactor, composed of 514 fuel rods.
Ever since the explosion Tepco has been concerned that if the spent fuel storage pond dries out, the intensely radioactive spent fuel rods would melt down and produce further significant radioactive emissions.
One possibility is that this process may now be taking place. In the event of water loss from the pond, the water would begin to overheat and produce clouds of steam, prior to a complete meltdown. If this is the case then a second major nuclear disaster at Fukushima is in the making.
Possibility 2: 'corium' has reached groundwater
Reactor 3 itself contained 566 fuel rods, and has experienced a complete meltdown. The location of the molten fuel, known as 'corium', is unknown, but it may have burnt its way through the reactor base and entered the underlying soil.
This would also produce steam as the hot corium came into contact with groundwater, while also releasing radioactive contamination to make its way into the Pacific Ocean.
Possibility 3: rainwater on stray fuel elements
An alternative explanation is that the steam plumes could be caused by stray fuel pellets and reactor rod fragments - which themselves produce significant amounts of heat - coming into contact with rainwater percolating through the damaged and roofless structure. Of the three choices this is probably the least serious.
The Turner Radio Network is advising people on the West Coast of North America to "prepare for the worst" in case a meltdown of the waste fuel is in fact commencing. No official warnings have been released on either side of the Pacific.

The regular people that live there know this happens therefore are cleaning it up asap so they don't scare tourists away. The news, well they just like to over hype everything these days.

I'm not a meteorologist but I know that air currents don't cross the equator, that's how I know to go south if nukes start going off in the northern hemisphere. Using (possibly faulty) logic I would think that ocean currents tend to also keep the same north south separation due to angular momentum.
Edit: So probably not Fukushima...edit on 20131231 by bonsaihorn because: Why I don't think it can be Fukushima...
