followed by Milton
crashing into Florida
on Wednesday."
"Katie Nickolaou, a Michigan-based meteorologist, said that she and her colleagues have borne the brunt of much of these conspiracies, having received messages claiming

and even that scientists should be killed
and radar equipment be demolished. "

This is approximately the amount of energy required to heat all the water on Earth by 1 °C.
The thermal output of the Sun is approximately 400 YJ per second."
