Amid nuke crisis, French urged to leave Tokyo
The French Embassy is advising its citizens to leave Tokyo and its surroundings in case a cloud of radiation heads to the city.

After a devastating earthquake and tsunami, multiple nuclear reactors are facing possible meltdowns at plants more than a hundred miles (200 kilometers) from Tokyo.

1. This is good advice.
I hope a lot more people there came to the same conclusion.

2. 'in case the worst happened and a "radioactive plume" headed for the area.'
But it urged those who did not have to be in Tokyo to leave for several days, in case the worst happened and a "radioactive plume" headed for the area.
