Fifteen-year-old Tommy Fry, an awkward but bright teen with a passion for science, lives in the shadow of his father, Dr. Anthony Fry, a top-secret government scientist working for the clandestine agency ARROW. Dr. Anthony Fry’s research focuses on climate and weather manipulation, a field that fascinates Tommy and his two best friends, Michelle and Miguel. Though curious and inventive, the trio often overestimates their abilities and dives into situations they probably shouldn’t. One fateful night, the friends sneak into the high-security weather research facility where Dr. Anthony Fry works. While poking around, they accidentally trigger an experimental system, causing a massive explosion that alters their lives forever. Tommy discovers he can control the weather and adopts the name Thunderstorm. Michelle, now with the ability to move at lightning speed, becomes Swift, while Miguel, infused with the power of fire, takes on the moniker Burn Notice. As Tommy learns to navigate his new abilities, he struggles to balance school, friendship, and the burden of being a hero. When a dangerous figure emerges from the shadows, threatening to harness ARROW’s technology for destruction, Thunderstorm must rise to the occasion. With Swift and Burn Notice at his side, he faces the ultimate challenge: embracing responsibility, protecting the city, and proving that even a kid can change the forecast of the future.
