Insects have higher LD50 for radiation exposure than mammals. LD50 is defined as the dose of something toxic that results in 50% fatality in the exposed group.
However insects would have similar problems to mammals surviving the thermal effects.
A direct nuclear blast - nothing. However it is said that cockroaches would possibly survive radiation where other animals would be killed.
No cockroaches are one of the few organisms able to survive nuclear explosions. Scorpions cannot.
Cockroaches are known for their resilience and ability to survive extreme conditions, but it is unlikely that they would survive a nuclear explosion due to the intense heat, pressure, and radiation levels produced. The blast would likely be lethal to them.
It is highly unlikely that anything directly at the site of a nuclear blast would survive due to the extreme heat, pressure, and radiation. However, some organisms like extremophiles have shown the capability to survive in extremely harsh conditions and may have a chance of surviving indirectly through protective mechanisms.
Vacuum tube radios.
I don't know every animal that would be able to survive, but Cockroaches are believed to be able to. The blast itself would kill everything around. The blast itself wouldn't destroy every living thing, but the radiation would do most of the work. Cockroaches can survive extreme heat and radiation.
the whole world would die, directly from the blast, the shockwave or nuclear radition. every piece of food would be contaminated so even if you did survive there would be nothing to eat or drink.
It might survive the blast, but would likely die of radiation within a few days.
A nuclear blast is unlikely to have a significant impact on a hurricane. The energy released from a nuclear blast is far less compared to the energy of a hurricane. The hurricane's strong winds and dynamics would likely dissipate or diminish the effects of the blast.
The blast effects (which is all the question as worded asks about) would be the same as the blast effects of a weight of TNT identical to the nuclear bomb's yield (by definition). However a nuclear bomb has additional effects that the TNT doesn't, but as this question only asked about blast effects, I won't visit them.
I've heard were ever the nuclear bomb hits, 300 miles from it everything is destroyed. Nothing would be left except some bodies and buildings sadly. I think you should be at least 500-600+ miles away from the hit so if you do survive,your food or water won't be infected from the blast.Fact: I originally upgraded this story, however this user overwrote the true stats of an standard nuclear explosion. To survive an nuclear bomb, ideally be outside of of an 50 mile radius of the inital explosion. If you are within 50 miles, get moving away from the blast zone fast. Move up air. Study wind currents in your area and head where the wind will be flowing to the blast site, not from the blast site or down current. Good luck.
There is no definitive "safest" place in London to survive a nuclear bomb as the impact would be widespread. However, underground structures such as the London Underground network or purpose-built nuclear shelters may provide some level of protection from initial blast and radiation effects. It is important to follow official guidance in the event of a nuclear attack.
