IM IN OKLAHOMA AND JUST SAW THIS I ALREADY LET MY LITTLE ONE PLAY IN IT THIS MORNING F  Remember, these readings are fairly low. It would take about 5 Rads per hour to do any serious injury... Still Alpha particles stay within the body and accumulate... You need only one hot particle in your lungs to kill you (slowly) and Geiger counter won’t be able to detect it. But if it detects elevated radiation level, there is a chance that there may be hot particles around. A "hot particle" would be emitting many thousands of cpm within a few feet of it. There are no "hot particles" in the snow, only a few very tiny flecks. There is more radiation exposure in a banana or in a concrete block than in eating a a ton of snow.
