Mera is a mid herald? What did she do?
Storm hasn't done much with Stormcaster, but it's not like she started racking up low showings or something. She just hasn't been displayed much in either direction, high or low. She's got plenty of stuff to draw from though. We're still talking about goddamn Storm here.
Same with Rachel's upgrade. Disappointing, but not low. She's basically done a bunch of shit she was already capable of doing.

She's Aquaman-ish physically, with advanced hydrokinesis.
She fought Wonder Woman h2h evenly in Blackest Night, and also as a Red Lantern vs Violet Lantern.
As far as powers-combat, her highest showing is this:

She can make water-shields to tank baby nukes:

She's not getting into a power feat-war with Storm anytime soon, but if she leaps hard enough she could probably one-shot her [https://imgur.com/wBjRW1r], and if she thinks fast enough, she could manipulate Storm's internals for the win. The same goes in return, minus the physicals.
As Zop said, it's probably a quick draw. She dehydrated Flash instantly as he was running towards her, for what it's worth, in the JL scans. There's also this:

I'd place her at mid to high meta. I mean would you really place her on par with Firelord who is a mid Herald? Getting past that, there are times that tiers don't matter much. In this case Storm may actually be a mid herald with that hammer, but she lacks any hard feats to prove it at this point. On her own without the hammer I'd place her at about Mera's level. with it she may be more than Mera can handle, especially since nothing stops her from striking from the air.

Fix your links! 😛
I think that there's a very secure argument to be made that ever since Johns got a hold of her with Blackest Night, Mera has been in the low herald tier at the very least. Mid herald and high meta are both arguments you can make, sure, but I'd personally put her in LH.
Storm's asgardian powers just aren't well-defined enough for me in terms of what they're capable of.

Bro, Mera's made constructs that can contain mini nukes and hold Superman and Wonder Woman for a few minutes. Storm going physical is like asking for death. Mera's hydrokinesis is ranged, so Storm taking to the air won't save her.@Philo

I'm well aware of how powerful Mera is, but Storm has been bumped up a couple pegs due to that hammer. Without the hammer she has done some pretty crazy things herself. Lightning ha power over water as you know. In character neither of the two are going to kill each each other, although being fully capable of it. I don't think it would be an easy fight for either.
If this is w/o weapons than its the same argument as here.

Its not a safe assumption that Mera can use internal hydrokinesis against Storm.
Originally posted by Sin I AMGiven some of the people in high-meta right now [Aquaman, Iron Man, Mandarin, Mimic,Psylocke, Sinister], there's a good argument she should be there, since they're at her level, or higher. You might find a few at the lower-end of the low-herald who can approximate her power-level, so she's somewhere between high-meta and low herald [the same as those I mentioned above].

Storm has hydrokinesis in addition to bio-electricity. This whole discussion has already taken place in the other thread with the link already posted above.

Some here are assuming that Mera can control the water in Storm's body. I remember that Mera could not do that to Black Manta b/c of his bioelectric suit. Needlessly to say that Storm's body generates plenty of bio-electricity.

As Pr said, everybody has bio-electricity. That doesn't make you immune to her powers.
What Black Manta had was a suit with a bioelectric seal.
Seal, being the key word.

"seal or seal up to close a container or space by covering it with something so that air or other substances cannot get in or out"
