A single nuclear detonation produces temperatures reaching 180 million degrees Fahrenheit, creating fireballs over a mile in diameter and blast waves that destroy all engineered structures within a 5-7 mile radius, causing tens of millions of deaths and leaving survivors with fatal burns, impalement injuries, and suffocation across entire cities and towns.

The split-second reality of nuclear devastation.Added:
going to feel as you describe here on page 277, there are a thousand flashes of light superheating the air in each ground zero to 180 million degrees Fahrenheit, a thousand fireballs each more than a mile in diameter, a thousand steeply fronted blast waves, a thousand walls of compressed air, a thousand American cities and towns where all where all engineered structures in five, six, or seven miles radius change physical shapes, collapse, and burn, a thousand cities and towns with molten asphalt streets, a thousand cities and towns with survivors impaled to death by flying debris, a thousand cities and towns filled with tens of millions of dead people, with tens of millions of unfortunate survivors suffering fatal third-degree burns, people naked, tattered, bleeding, and suffocating, people who don't look or act like people anymore.
Across America and Europe, hundreds of millions of people are dead and dying while hundreds of military aircraft fly circles in the air until they until they run out of fuel.
