- Sound Cancellation (using control of air molecules, currents and pressure to cancel out the vibrations of sound, thus masking her presence, keeping guards from alerting her enemies to her presence, erecting shield bubbles that keep anyone on the other side of them from overhearing what she's saying inside one, or even negating sonic attacks)
- Thunder generation (the inverse of the above, using the same properties that make thunder but without the accompanying lightning strike, in effect using a thunderclap itself as a weapon, creating a shockwave or sonic boom at close quarter range)
- Breath control (the opposite of like when Invisible Woman creates globes around a person's head to starve off their oxygen supply and knock them out, Storm could similarly create a vacuum of air around a person and redirect the oxygen away from them - even most superstrong opponents still need to breathe)
- Toxic cloud generation (have Manifold take her on quick jaunts to other planets to study their non-hospitable atmospheres and how they're generated....theoretically, as long as the necessary elements are all hanging around in SOME quantities, Storm should be more than capable of drawing them together via winds and air pressure and combining them to form clouds of methane or chlorine gas)
- manipulate auroras as a weapon or display of power (Auroras are generated by the impact of cosmic radiation, solar winds and a planet's magnetic fields all combining and interacting in the upper atmosphere, thus with the proper atmospheric control or fine tuning, Storm could manipulate the shape and intensity of these natural light shows for a variety of effects)
- EM Spectrum and radio wave manipulation (by manipulating the atmosphere between points A and B, Storm could hack, intercept or interfere with radio transmissions and many other types dependent on transmitting wavelengths through an atmospheric medium)
- Neural knockout (attuning her senses to picking up the minute instead of the infinite, feeling for the electrical discharges happening within a person's brain activity and nervous system and just rapidly ionizing the air around them just enough to overload their natural bio-electric rhythms, without requiring any kind of visible attack like a lightning strike)
- creating unique and wholly stabilized/self-sufficient weather phenomena (on Mars, the atmosphere is Storm's to mold....the very newness of it and lack of pre-existing ecological patterns allows her to fine tune the weather patterns in ways she doesn't have the luxury of doing on Earth, providing room for her to tailor specific weather systems or areas to achieve specific, engineered effects for the Arakkii's purposes. For example, in Venezuela, there's a place called Catatumbo River where at the place where the mouth of the river empties into a lake, due to the specific geography of the area and the way it traps/enables near constant stormclouds, there are regular lightning storms a good half the year. In the past, its been at times a nearly year round phenomenon, and Storm could literally mold the atmosphere to match up with the geography in various places to achieve specific effects like this in order to say, create areas that can literally supercharge energy-dependent machinery or mutant powers year round)
- the face from The Mummy Returns (look I don't know how else to describe it but if anyone else has seen The Mummy Returns with Brendan Fraser and that part where the villain chases their air ship with a wall of water that forms his face as it pursues them - picture Storm concentrating so intently on shaping clouds and winds she sends after her enemies that her mind and will essentially become merged with them to such an extent that the clouds and winds themselves appear to be her face, basically a giant storm elemental of wrath)
Stuff like that.
