    Occasionally I check the BBC and Al-Jazeera (for a slightly different angle), but that's about it.

    Update
    As of 18.00, the smoke coming from unit 3 vanished. The cause is still unknown. However, as of 18.20, white smoke (thought to be steam) began coming out of unit 2. According the TEPCO, radiation levels initially rose, but fell back down again. About 1km West of units 2 and 3, 494uSv/h was recorded at 17.40. Then, at 18.30, 1932uSv/h was seen. Afterwards the value began to fall again to 442uSv/h at 20.30. TEPCO is looking into the cause of the smoke.
