Here's a "nice" little tool.

Choose the area, the blast type (either from existing data, like Little Boy/Fat Man, what is presumed the N.Koreans, Pakistani, Indians have, hypothetical terrorist "dirty bomb", the H-bomb, etc. or your own variable), detonate and see the effects:

There are a couple of these on the Web. Living outside of Washington, DC I've played with most of them. This one is very simple and works quite well.

With that approach I strongly suggest you give up your Israeli one.

Thanks for the link! Very impressive.

I hit Denver with a presumed 1 mt bomb. Not as much damage as I expected, to be honest.

I didn't notice - is there a way to set for airburst vs ground burst?

I think we'll find that the North Koreans and the Iranians are far beyond the measly little 15 kt yield of the WWII nukes.

When I was a kid I found graphics of damage radius in a Time-Life science periodical. Took those & with my drafting class compass I drew damage radius on most of the the major cities in the Readers Digest Atlas kept next to the fireplace.
