== Volatile Ice Storm ==

[[File:Wightstorm_Forwards_Base.jpg|thumb|400px|The view inside Wightstorm Forwards Base. The snowing effect is visible in all systems affected by the storm.]]

Volatile Ice Storm is a [[Metaliminal Storms|Metaliminal Storm]] that moves between High, Low and Null Security systems. The center system experiences the Strong effect, while ~~nearby~~ systems get a Weak effect. Volatile Ice Storms can overlap.

Volatile Ice Storm is a [[Metaliminal Storms|Metaliminal Storm]] that moves between High, Low and Null Security systems. During the event, there are approximately 14 highsec, 5 lowsec, and 14 nullsec storms. The center system and its neighbors experiences the Strong effect, while systems 2-3 jumps out from the center get a Weak effect. Volatile Ice Storms can overlap. The sites spawned depend on the security status of the center system (e.g. a low security system in a highsec-centered ice storm will have highsec sites).

~~Volatile Ice Storms spawn:~~

* Wightstorm Combat Anomalies

* Volatile Ice Fields

* Wightstorm Data Sites
