I came across that a few months ago when researching nuclear warfare.
NOTE: it works best if the cities you pick are northeastern US and SoCal, since they are the most densely populated areas and you get a better idea of the affected area. You wallop, say, a major <s>Soviet</s> Russian military installation like the one in Ufa, you see a circle around a dot named "Ufa" and think "what the hell?." You nail, say, DC and see that the windows would be blown out in Baltimore and you think "sweet" or "damn."

Its just isnt as fun as doing it on real life.But its okay.

Don't nuke D.C. or Baltimore. You'll catch Keyan and me in either the blast or the radiation fallout.

Chino. It better not be the Deftones Chino cause I care deeply about him. But if it ain't him then go ahead and blast away.

Oh yeah and nuke Perryville. We suck.

In my extensive studies into nuclear warfare, I have found that anything UNDER 30 megatons parked on Pittsburg<font size="4">h</font> would only destroy my house with the pressure wave, but spare me from the thermal blast. The rough terrain between here and there, combined with the up-slope course, would shield much of the Northern and Southern regions of Western PA. A similar fate would befall me if a device was placed on Beaver, PA or Weirton, WV.
However:
A 30 megaton device on Youngstown, OH or 15 on New Castle, PA would cook me nicely to a charred cinder. Additionally, no less than FOUR nuclear targets are within 10 miles of me: the AK Steel (formerly ARMCO) refractory metals plant/Trinity (formerly Pullman-Standard) railcar plant, a US Storage Archive, the town of Butler, PA, and the town of Saxonburg, PA which is home to TWO plants that make such things as ceramic parts for satellites and other military applications and a plant that makes lenses for night-vision goggles, seeker windows for missiles, and other..lens things. Also, a determined count-population attack on the US would mean that almost 15 warheads in the 5 megaton range would be detonated in the area around Pittsburgh.
Conclusion: 5 megatons on Hampton Township, PA and Nute is a goner.

Thats sick.

FORUNATELY for me, one of the dozen or so surviving Nike missile sites is just west of Pittsburgh, about 5 miles from the Greater Pittsburgh International Airport. This site forms part of the air defenses of the city and airport (you'd be surprised just how many SAM sites surround cities and airports in the US). This site, for those who don't know, would fire a hypersonic missile with a small nuclear warhead into the upper atmosphere in a desperate attempt to destroy incoming warheads.

Nike site?

Put the shiny penny on my radioactive, charred body.

Actually, the track for the Urbana warhead probably would have to pass within the arc of one of the HANDFUL of Spartan sites. Spartans are basically the same as a Nike, but newer (from the 1970s W00T!). They've got one at AFB Offutt in Omaha, so it would be a long shot...

For those of you without advanced hypersonic anti-ballistic warhead missile systems defending your city, your best bet to keep Mr.Nuke from turning everything you know into a disfigured example of nuclear fury is a thunderstorm.
"What?" you say, "A THUNDERSTORM?"
correct: a warhead re-enters the atmosphere at 15 THOUSAND knots. While they are HEAT RESISTANT, nuclear warheads are rather flimsy devices and slamming into hail and ice inside a thunderstorm is going to rip the sucker apart to the point were it has the destructive capabilities of a car that fell from space.

PS: here's something you might not have known that i find amazing.
Fairly high up on the list for a TOTAL GLOBAL ATTACK on the Russians (i.e. the "All in One" attack), were such Allied cities as London, Paris, Berlin, Geneva, and Brussels. Yes, the US planned on nuking allied capital cities.
