Better. Make the storn's size defined by a number from 0 to 6 ... said being the number of squares of "Radius" from the centerpoint. A 0-radius storm would be the current, one-sector-only storm. A 6-radius storm would be the whole sector (the center, 6 to each side, that's 13x13).

Round storms would be best, ofc, but ... *shrug* ...
