fallout-predictor

name	fallout-predictor
description	Predicts radioactive fallout trajectory and contamination zones based on meteorological data (wind speed, direction) and detonation parameters. Use when a user needs to know where fallout will settle after a nuclear event.

Fallout Predictor

Use this skill to calculate and visualize potential radioactive fallout patterns.

Workflow

1. Gather Data:
   • Detonation location (coordinates or city).
   • Yield (in kilotons/megatons) - default to 150kt if unknown.
   • Wind Data: Use scripts/get_weather.py to fetch current wind speed and direction at different altitudes via Open-Meteo API.
2. Analyze:
   • Determine the 'Hotline' (center of the fallout plume).
   • Estimate the width and length of the plume based on yield and wind speed.
   • Identify 'Contamination Zones' (Extreme, High, Moderate, Low).
3. Advise:
   • Provide immediate sheltering instructions for areas in the predicted path.
   • Estimate 'Time of Arrival' (TOA) for different locations.

Data Sources

• Météo-France: https://portail-api.meteofrance.fr/ (Official national forecasting).
• Open-Meteo API: Free, real-time atmospheric data (wind at various altitudes).
• Scripts: scripts/get_weather.py automates data collection.
