Let's say the town is a coastal town. How long would the radiation remain? Would there be any fallout comparable to nuclear winter? How would the ocean be affected?

There are variables all the way down to the pigment of the skin of the populous below...

The damage caused by five modern nuclear bombs detonating over a town would be catastrophic. The initial explosion would result in a massive shockwave, destroying buildings and infrastructure within a large radius. The intense heat would also cause fires to break out, further damaging structures and spreading throughout the town. The radioactive fallout from the explosions would contaminate the area, making it uninhabitable for years to come.
The number of casualties from five modern nuclear bombs detonating over a town would depend on various factors such as the size and type of bombs used, the population density of the town, and the time of day the bombs were detonated. However, it is safe to say that there would be a significant loss of life, both from the initial blast and from the long term effects of radiation exposure.
It is unlikely that there would be any survivors if five modern nuclear bombs detonated over a town. The intense heat, shockwave, and radiation exposure would make it almost impossible for anyone in the immediate blast zone to survive. Those who were not killed instantly would likely suffer from severe injuries and radiation sickness, which would significantly reduce their chances of survival.
The recovery process for a town that has been hit by five modern nuclear bombs would be long and challenging. The initial cleanup and rebuilding efforts would take several years, and the town may never fully recover. The area would also remain contaminated for a long time, making it unsafe for human habitation. The psychological effects on survivors and the community as a whole would also take a significant amount of time to heal.
The impact on the surrounding areas from five modern nuclear bombs detonating over a town would be significant. The shockwave and heat from the explosions would cause damage to buildings and infrastructure in a large radius around the town. The radioactive fallout would also spread to neighboring towns and cities, causing contamination and potential health risks for those living in the area. The economic and social consequences would be far-reaching and long-lasting.
