* θύελλα (thyella): This is a general word for a violent storm, often implying a strong wind. It's a good all-around choice.
* χείμαρρος (cheimarros): This refers more specifically to a sudden, violent rainstorm, often one that causes flooding.
* καταιγίς (kataigis): This word describes a thunderstorm, emphasizing the lightning and rain.
* τυφών (typhon): This refers to a hurricane or cyclone, a much larger and more powerful storm.
So the best translation depends on context. For a general storm, θύελλα (thyella) is a safe bet.
