Do nothing. Unless there is someone like me who has powers and is using it for his own benefit and not the benefit humanity on a whole, then i'd stop him, but other than that I'd do nothing.

@jhazzroucher: If you stop all storms you'd be screwing up the eco system, storms while problematic actually do serve an absolutely necessary function in the the ecosystem. And lessening rain would potentially lead to world wide famine considering rain is the primary source of water for both the plants we eat and the plants our live stock and other animals eat so less rain equals less food, less food means more people and animals starve to death.

Ok. I'l just slow it down just enough not to make damages.

as for the rain, sometimes it rains so hard and long that I believe it should be stopped to stop floods.

@jhazzroucher: Those super powerful storms are actually helping to sustain life on this planet by clearing up those pesky toxic gases spewed out by things like geysers and volcanoes so while yes if you lessened them it would cut down on property damage but you'd also be cutting down on more important things like breathable air. And while flood prevention is a noble goal building good levees is a much better and safer precaution than potentially devastating the world's food supplies.

Basically if someone in the real world had Storm's powers it would be terrible because anything you did regardless of motivation would end up screwing up the planet in horrible ways

I disagree. There is always another and better way to obtain breathable air. I have the power to do it as having the powers of Storm. I don't need to create storms to obtain breathable air.

I don't think so.

@jhazzroucher: So you would be up in the sky doling out breathable air 24 hours a day 7 days a week cause you would be better at it than the billions of years old system that nature already has in place?

I am pretty sure i can't stop all storms around the world but I'll try the best that I can to help people. In my place or country, we've been experiencing lots of earthquakes, typhoons and floods that a lot of people die either directly from those calamities or getting sick. and a lot of people's homes are destroyed. I have Storm's powers and I have a responsibility to save people as well as the environment.

There's a reason why they're called "calamities" and it has to be controlled or stopped.

I would also study about those stuff so i can effectively use my powers cos if not, then yeah, i might mess up.

Make a wand, have it glow, get myself an awesome jump suit with yellow stripes across the chest, and a collar that stands on it's own. I already got the wild hair, so I'm good. I also need a domino mask.

I would bring rain to areas with drought and help prevent flooding and other natural disasters. Then maybe restore the degenerating ice in the North and South Poles.....and then charge for tv and live appearances, commercials, becoming a spokeman for some random brand...essentially becoming Booster Gold with weather related powers ;D Make the most of everything, I say.

Display a machine that can supposedly manipulate weather. Say that due to complications in the design, any conflicting signals received from a similar machine would cause both to explode with the force of a megaton bomb. That should temporarily stop anyone from attempting to replicate it. Go around the world supposedly using the machine to enhance weather conditions in places that can afford it, end global warming, etc. Places in dire need I'd fix pro bono, if requested by a majority of the inhabitants. The entire time, I'd say it's the machine fixing the weather. That way, I'm not outed as some sort of superpowered individual up for capture and dissection, I can make money, and I can help the world if I so chose. Win win win. When I finally got tired of it, say the machine has broken down and I can't build another safely until the signals from the previous machine has cleared the atmosphere, which could take a long time. If I want to get back into it, hey, the signals are clear at last.

I'd whip up the biggest storms in history over the primary producers of air pollution and keep them going until all the unnatural smog and pollutants were completely sucked out of the atmosphere and then leave the natural weather patterns alone while giving the polluters a good reason to clean up their sh*t

@jobiwankenobi: I say if Super powers were a thing in the real world Spidey would probably be about as powerful as people could get without starting to just ruin the Earth. People always think they'd be great super heroes but lets be honest here humans on average do not have the self control to use god like powers wisely and due to the laws of probability those who would use them properly wouldn't be the ones to get them.
