1. Mystery Continues: Professor theorizes black substance on roads is actually radioactive particles — “Phenomenon occurs even in regular soil containing no cyanobacteria” — All roadside dirt can have high radiation, regardless of color. Enenews Excerpts:
There are two major theories on why the cyanobacteria in the black soil has such high levels of radiation, but nothing has been confirmed.
One theory posits that the radiation becomes concentrated in the cyanobacteria. There is scientific evidence that cyanobacteria absorbs cesium, but confirmation has yet to be made on whether such radiation concentration has occurred in the cyanobacteria found in the black soil samples.
Hayakawa’s theory is that the high radiation levels are due to radioactive cesium from the Fukushima nuclear accident that was pushed by rain and wind and accumulated along roads. He believes that the phenomenon occurs even in regular soil containing no cyanobacteria.
According to Hayakawa’s theory, all dirt along roads is capable of recording high radiation levels, regardless of the color of the soil.

3. BREAKING: Typhoon Guchol to cross Tokyo and then on to Fukushima - this could be it! Maybe.. This is a good thread to refer back to, as they'll keep up with the typhoon's direction until it hits Tokyo and Fukushima, or veers off onto another course in real time. Remember, this is a model, but couple the storm's potential with this little nugget: Fukushima worker “Tepco is having difficulty to increase tanks because of poor ground” Fukushima Diary. Excerpts:

Tepco postponed the construction to increase tanks for the contaminated water.
They were planning to start the construction in July but it will be postponed to August.
Tepco explains it is for the construction scheduling and there is still enough capacity of the tank, but actual Fukushima worker, Happy11311 tweeted like this below
I think the construction of the new tanks is behind the schedule and it’s not for what Tepco explained. I think that’s because of the ground. They are taking time to build the base of the tanks.
Typhoon-style rain on already unstable ground will make the ground more or less stable?
