Characters in Neil Gaiman's American Gods predict stormy weather, meaning a war between old and new gods.
In Poul Anderson's The Shield Of Time, the Time Patrol makes what provision it can against a temporal catastrophe while there is a storm above New York.
In Anderson's The Earth Book Of Stormgate, van Rijn and Falkayn move data units to Hermes because a time of storms is brewing in the Solar System.
Fiction reflects reality.

Kaor, Paul!
And because of you, I'm now more AWARE of the symbolic uses or implications of "storm weather" in Anderson's works. I had once on a time simply taken such details for granted, as simply background color.
