Uh...I never used the book as "perfectly credible article".
The book is what you where looking at, I've had very little to say about the book. AAMOF, I explain why Storm has specialized from of telekinesis in my post. You might want to reread my replies.
Oh and just for the record Storm power are more then Atomkinesis
Atmokinesis- The mental manipulation of the atmosphere and weather including inexpert Thermokinesis, Electrokinesis and Aerokinesis. For techniques and more information look under this abilities sub-categories. They work with the elements themselves. An atmokinetic would not be considered a Aero or Pyrokinetic by any means. (Geez, do they just throw kinesis on everything, damn gaming industry.)
Her powers extend a hell of a lot farther then that.
Also it look like you guys are somewhat right the book does have Marvel's name on it, so you can take that anyway you like it. It really doesn't bother me, mostly because I actually have a comic book proving it wrong.

I hate to burst you bubble but I wasn't talking about the entry from the book. I was talking the scan I gave you from Uncanny X-Men 152/X-Men Classic 56, which shows Storm/Emma creating a jetstream in a split-second.
Sorry, you're barking up the wrong tree on that one, playa.
How in the world is Storm's abilitiy to strike you with a lightning before you can say the number "1", to slow?

It's kinda like in the game X-men legends where Jean's "telekinesis" power instantly lifts the enemies and Storm's "lightning strike" power lags a split second.
1. She thinks "Lightning, strike that white *****!"
2. The weather obeys and prepares to strike.
3. The lightning itself travels at less than a third of the speed of light to strike.
Sorry but when something can happen in a half a second, one can rational logical deducted that speed is no longer an issue is this debate.
Okay, let me see if I can give you my point of view on this subject. Storm's powers are always on, unlike others who have telepathy and telekinesis who can mentally switch their powers on or off. Storm's brain is alway sending out psionic energy into the environment giving her almost immediate response and sensation from her surrounding.
Now think about it, you have mental control over 3 miles of the surrounding area and your powers are deeply connected to the environment. Every thought you make (be it happiness, sadness or rage) is equally reflected by the environment a split second later. This is why Storm has such control over her emotions.
You do realize that Storm can create weather effect in a split-second and 1/3 the speed of light is still faster then you/humans can react.

The fact that Storm being sad makes it rain is irrelevant. To consciously use her powers Storm has a lag. Which Nightcrawler, Shadowcat, Cyclops and Jean Grey herself have reacted to. Speed is an issue when your opponent's power can directly kill you, or inhibit your powers, or easily protect themself.
That was a weak bio electric bolt that moves slower then lightning, the scan i showed said before anyone can react in a blink of an eye, which is a half second or faster.

Blink of an eye...before anyone present can react...and if you look she's making a hand gesture as well....
Prove that her Bio Electric Bolt moves slower then her lightning...from the sky...the discharge would be the same. And from those scans Storm already discharged it the bolt.
Nope you were refering to both the official article and comic. Go back and re-read your posts.
Um...in all those scans she still....manipulates the atmosphere....she just manipulates a different atmosphere when she's not on Earth.
As for the clothes thing....she has atmokinesis...stands to reason that if she can create a bolt she can manipulate a few charges her and there....in any event apart from make clothes out of this power...what else has she done with it?
Yeah that's why it says....
Official Article/Comic in that post....
Since thought an action are in unison for Jeans powers.
The hand gesture could have came after she called the storm(remeber that we are looking at stills and not live action) Blink of an eye is a half a second or faster, you've already provided another scan with it saying a blink of an eye, which is extreamly fast.
Just blink your own eye and realise how fast a storm can be sitting on you, keep in mind this was a full fledge storm in a blink of an eye.
What difference does it make when they say present, that should mean that anyone around her could not react before she called the storm. Also her bio electric bolts are just weak electricity just powerful enough to stunn you. Not real lightning that comes from the sky that could strike you before you know it. They're much bigger,hotter, and powerful.
Ororo displays greater mastery of self, see how Storm has a clean Record with men.
Jeans wayward spirit that she is fades away like dew at dawn.
GAMBIT LIMITED SERIES, Remy is sneaking into the mansion, holding a charged card to his temple to screen his brainwaves from Xavier.
A psi bolt is aimed at its recipient, if you are a psi and cannot draw a bead on your opponent you are fked. I recall an issue of Cable "Into the Abyss" Dom, Cable and Douglock travel to parts unknown to check in on the Genoshan refugee Dr Renee Maljcomb Some zero tolerance types are lurking in the shadows Double cloaked, first: by psi shields second: they're invisible [PIS Cable has a Left eye with operates on multiple wavelengths night vision/ infra red/ x rays/ oral residue/ chronotronic particles yadda yadda yadda. PIS.] their instruments register an Omega signature.
Cable suspects something and inadvertently bumps into one of the cloaked corps. Which is interpreted as an act of aggression.
Only through allowing them to hold him can he get a bead on them.
[because its nighttime + dense foliage footprints aren't visible. "cough" nightvision techno-optics "cough". more PIS.]
With Jean Grey's targeting complicated by thick mist, dust storm, and electric psi scrambling she is fallen. Storm can finish her off from afar.
During Xtinction Agenda deaged Storm in an Infant's body does just that to Jean in THE DANGER ROOM.
Not as fast as thought though....and that's why we're calling it a lag. She thinks and blinks....not fast enough....especially when action and thought are in unison.
It says anyone present....meaning applied to the people present. In any event it still used the term blink of an eye....which as stated before is a lag.
Has this actually been stated about her Bio Electric Bolts? Because Emma has taken Storms lightning from the sky and gotten right up...
In any event it doesn't matter.
Storm thinks..then has to blink...
Jean thinks and Storm is f*ked...
So does Storm do this before or after Jean thinks? And BTW Storms mind has been interefered with plenty of times...you're frying someones brain not probing it....a brain shut down....would do just fine as well. A Psi Bolt is a mind fry...you don't need to probe the person to fry their mind you're you can either use the ambient psionic from the surroundings or cause their synapses(Brain Functions not conscious thought) to missfire either way works.. And again Storm has been mentally invaded on plenty of occasions...even when she had an electrical interference up.
BTW with TK Jean snaps Storms neck before Storm can blink.
