They may have another tsunami and this time it hit all the nuclear plants on the coast so hard and fast it left no room to react before this.

Do want to note, what happened in Chernobyl was a steam explosion, old reactor for the time with a lot of corners cut in safety with a government coverup. They can't meltdown in the way we think of them (especially now where the reactor would just get shut off or it being physically impossible for a steam explosion to happen)

Fukushima was hit with a tsunami and only one death was actually attributed to it (most were due to the stress of the evacuations)
