Something so eloquently put about Storm.
"Its a tricky thing. Storm's powers at their true extent would allow her to be aware of every change in temperature, pressure, moisture and electrical charge in her environment extending infinitesimally. She would be aware of thoughts(electrical "storms" of the mind), projectiles moving through space, the presence of warmth and moisture of a body, etc, etc. It should be impossible to sneak up on her. That kind of character becomes very difficult to write. So what we see in the comics are attempts to make a goddess human, with weaknesses, distractions and limitations. That is why so many people already have problems with what Storm represents. They are intimidated by her grace and majesty, range and scope of ability, and most especially, her self-possessiveness, which covers not only her own person and psyche, but, by nature of her abilities, to the environment around her. She represents a powerful archetype many can not relate to because it comes so close to a perfected being, to Goddess. Claremont has somehow made a (close to) 3-dimensional goddess. Sadly, most other writers can only mimic what he does, creating a sloppy interpretation without his intrinsic understanding. Hence, we get so many strange versions of Storm under the pens of men who can not seem to relate to a powerful woman."

I somewhat agree until I hopefully get that clarification from Claremont.I mean man, Ororo manipulates empty space like a sculptress.
That's got to count for something. Her power is EMENSE given the implications.
If you ever do get this clarification please do share. I am not closed minded and if there is a reasonable explanation for her powers that allow her to be cosmic, I will concede.

I'm inclined to agree. Storm potentially has the power set to do what they claim but I don't think there is evidence she can do it on a grand enough scale. If she's show to have a power source that would make that possible or given feats that really show this potential I'd be willing to place her at a higher level.
Personally I think that Storm as having power over weather rather than a cosmic is far more interesting and in fact more impressive for Storm.

Until he does, he does not have that ability and certainly nowhere near STorm's level. That goes for Magneto too.
Magneto can certainly do this too with no sweat. He did it in the scan where he shocked Kitty. In what amount? I dunno, I don't feel like trying to eyeball that.

Storm controls stuff through Qauntum Mechanics(I think) which is FAR beyond Electro or Mags.
She controled "EMPTY SPACE"!
"Empty space" is full of dust and plasma and EM radiation. Literal empty space would be nothingness, like purgatory or something.

I just read the overview. If 2cloud understood it, he probably wouldn't be here and have far less misspellings where he would be. And if I bothered to try understanding it, it would have to be crazy to try explaining it to him.
blah, blah, blah
Explain it.
Surely you can do that since you understand it. 😉
Oh please don't ever get Ororo mixed with that rediculous idea. Ororo has never had to wait that long to creae an EMP, Hudlin for some reason felt like making a "first learners video on how to create EMP'S"
LOL you're actually claming that Hudlin weakens STORM?
please.
Storm has never been able to just "shoot" off an EMP, in fact, she's only done it like twice. Lol.

You laughed at me apparently for my lack of understanding about the concept with regard to Storm's powers, which indicates to me that you supposedly have a better understanding of it.
With that said, I would like you to explain Quantum Mechanics in your own words.
GO! 😱
