The statement above does not mean that there is any significant risk of radiation in Tokyo, or even at NRT. That statement is true even if there were no damage to the reactors. It merely expresses a possibility. Moreover NRT is a lot farther than 80 km from the damaged reactors.

Here is the advice given by the State Department issued on March 17th.

And here is the advice from March 16th.

I'll ask you the same question I asked sxf24,

Would you right now, or within the next week or two, get on a plane with your family and take them on holiday to the tokyo, Japan area?
