A timestorm is one of the side effects of disrupting the flow of time itself, caused by someone altering the timestream though time travel. Although what a timestorm does by itself is never fully explored, it can't be anything pleasant.
Visually, a timestorm appears as bright, blue and white light patterns moving erratically in the air, accompanied by lightning, to those within it. When viewed from outside, it begins as a cyclone-like shape, widest from its point of origin and stretching upwards. When it has reached a substantial size, a large energy "whirlpool" erupts from the point of origin, spreading quickly throughout the cosmos. Those who are directly affected negatively by the changes in time within a timestorm experience agonizing pain and are prone to phase in and out of existence, as well as having their appearance change wildly, possibly as a result of different outcomes in the timeline shifting.

When Megatron attempted to terminate the stasis-locked Optimus Prime in a gambit to change history in favor of the Decepticons and their descendants, the Predacons, a timestorm was formed.

Primax 290.03 Gamma was one of the effects of a timestorm in Primax 984.20 Gamma, caused by Cyclonus, a time traveler, dying before his creation.
The Minion of Unicron general Razorclaw originated in a splinter timeline of Primax 496.22 Alpha where Predacon leader Megatron absorbed his namesake's spark into his own, causing a timestorm that ultimately erased the past, present, and future of that reality.
