20. Don't know...

I've been watching that reading fluxuate between 68 and 90 for an hour now, I do not know how long the readings have been this high prior to my first post. When I google "High radiation levels Denver" I see that Denver does have higher radiation levels anyway both due to elevation and the uranium deposits. It appears that back in 2011 there was some concern about higher radiation levels in Denver too.

That said, a reading over 70 was apt to catch my attention, I do not recall ever seeing one anywhere on this map prior to this. The rest of the readings across that map seem fairly consistent from what I remember seeing the past 2 months: boring.

Yeah, I know the levels are not quite high enough for Radiation Network to sound an alarm, also I am acutely aware of my DU name, (It wouldn't be the first time I lived up to that name around here).

Sorta looks like it. In_The_Wind Dec 2013 #1
