Yeah you could feel the raw power... the dots are called kirby particles aka primordial kirbons it was just recently named that in honour of Jack kirby. In display of power old comics did storm better, because like you said now it's just lightning.
Also the scene with polaris always gets a laugh out of me. Lorna was out there thinking she and storn were on equal footing not knowing storm was even serious. Love polaris but that fight was simply not hers.
Oh I found it.
Storm summoning the elemental power of nature itself. Its such a beautiful thing.

Which issue is it in?
Did you know in Uncanny X-Men #227
-Storm shot Lightning out of her Eyes. I’d like to see that again. It’s random but something is like Storm to do more often if she is tied together or what not.
Also from the same issue adversary says storms hurricanes could move worlds and lightning turn them to dust.

Interesting because when Jason Aaron spoke of the god tempest he literally states that
The God Tempest was a cosmic storm the size of a galaxy. According to the Halls of All-Knowing, "its winds blew comets off course, ripped worlds from their orbit, and snuffed out stars like flickering candles." Its lightning was capable of turning moons into dust, and its thunder made black holes tremble. It took Odin all of his forces and days to contain it
Maybe I am bored and I am reaching lol.
