powerful events originating from the Sun, like Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) and solar flares, that blast charged particles and energy, creating space weather impacting planets and with Earth experiencing geomagnetic storms, auroras. Volcanic plumes or storms on Jupiter's moon Io has intense volcanism, creating atmospheric effects and "storms" of sulfur dioxide gas, making it a very geologically active world, but it's famous for volcanic plumes. Io is the most volcanically active body in the solar system, with constant eruptions spewing sulfur and sulfur dioxide.
Neptune has massive, Earth-sized storms called Great Dark Spots (GDS), which are huge, high-pressure vortices with incredibly fast winds (up to 1,500 mph/2,400 km/h) and are composed of methane ice clouds, but unlike Jupiter's Great Red Spot, they are temporary, forming and disappearing over several years, with new ones appearing in different locations.
Storms and atmospheric winds on Uranus can reach speeds of up to 900 kilometers per hour (kph). A persistent, bright "polar vortex" or "stormy cap" has been observed over the north pole. These storms are believed to be fueled by methane in the upper atmosphere.
