The Great Altihex Storm happens annually over the Altihex Desert. Each ano-cycle it triggers the Great Storm Dance, where Seekers and other aerials pit their skills against the raw power of the weather.
The storm, when it dissipates, will have delivered the region's entire annual rainfall. It is unlikely that the region will see any more rain, and almost certainly nothing of significance, until the next spring. Usually, the storm will develop somewhere to the south and roll into the region, where it will usually sit and dump all of its rain and energy over the course of three to five days.
