One of them is going to land right where you are. You have a 30 minute warning, what do you do?

30 minute warning? Well, if you drive very fast, you might be able to get far enough away where you can crash your car into some valley and maybe survive, but then you would have to deal with the zombie apocalypse.
I would drive home, get together with my family (in the basement), pray to God for forgiveness of my sins and thank him for the great life I have had, tell my family I love them and leave it at that.

Traffic and terrain around me I'd better off just sitting here and enjoying the last few minutes of my life. I would probably make a run for the mountains though in hopes I could get something between me and the explosion.

Heh, I would do nothing. If a nuke were headed to where *I* live - it would be because there was no fkn place else to bomb. I live in a place where people might go to hide out from a nuclear war in the first place, so if nukes were coming here... yeah... there'd be nowhere to run to.

There really isn't a whole lot you can do. Assuming you found out a nuke was coming, mostly everyone else would know. There would be no way in hell you would get far by car in 30 minutes if that was true.

If one hit near me it'd prolly be at SRS so I don't think I could drive fast enough to get away from the fallout.
Sooooo I'd prolly just get a good view and watch what happens

Like I said... I'll take 5 steps to the right... no point in running. 30 minutes I doubt I'll get back to my family and the phone lines are going to be clogged with people trying to call their family. I'll just wait and see them up in heaven.

Hum, assuming light traffic and a full tank of gas I could probably make it from my place over one of the passes in half an hour. I'm guessing the Cascades would provide more than enough protection from the blast (but not fallout).
It's about an hour from my house to the top of Snoqualmie Pass, which I think is probably the closest pass to me. That's assuming 60 mph, and my car will do 160, so I can definitely make it.

Nobody would EVER nuke here... There isnt anything important enough to nuke -- glowing cows?
They'd certainly nuke Philly to the southwest and NYC to the east and maybe Allentown to the west but even if they bothered to nuke Allentown that is still 30 miles away.

It's funny to realize but why would any of our enemies nuke D.C.? I know if I wanted to continue to see America collapse, the last thing I would do is mess with the greatest cause of our demise. That and New York, sure NY is one of the epicenters of global financial terrorism but ultimately the damage is once again going to take us out first before it does others.
NYC is good for false flag attacks and that is about it.

Yep. I can easily be on the other side of a 3,000-foot hill in half an hour, and, depending on the season, damned near the top of Mt. Baker. Hell, I could avoid major roads and still get over that hill in the half an hour. Not sure it'd protect me, but it would be my best hope, really.
