In meteorology, a storm was described any dangerous or severe weather disturbance that existed in the atmosphere of a planet or in outer space. Planetary storms were often accompanied by strong winds, thunder, lightning, and precipitation.
In 2151, on an uninhabited planet, the crew of Enterprise NX-01 had to take shelter in a cave to avoid a storm. (ENT: "Strange New World")
In 2256, the prison shuttle SPT 21 got caught in a storm in open space but was rescued by the USS Discovery. (DIS: "Context Is for Kings")
A class M planet in orbit of a G-type star was chosen as the new home for the recently awakened Vaadwaur. The planet featured a subcontinent with edible vegetation and an underground water supply. Unfortunately, the region was also subject to windstorms. (VOY: "Dragon's Teeth")
