(a storm is any disturbed state of an environment or astronomical body’s atmosphere especially affecting its surface)
(strongly implying ‘severe weather’)
.
(it may be marked by significant disruptions to normal conditions such as strong wind, tornadoes, hail, thunder and lightning (a thunderstorm), heavy precipitation (snowstorm, rainstorm), heavy freezing rain (ice storm), strong winds (tropical cyclone, windstorm), or wind transporting some substance through the atmosphere as in a dust storm, blizzard, ‘sandstorm’, etc)
(storms have the potential to harm lives and property via storm surge, heavy rain or snow causing flooding or road impassibility, lightning, wildfires, and vertical wind shear; however, systems with significant rainfall and duration help alleviate drought in places they move through)
(‘heavy snowfall’ can allow special recreational activities to take place which would not be possible otherwise, such as ‘skiing’ + ‘snow-mobiling’)
.
“desert storms are often accompanied by ‘violent winds'”
