Mr G.

Mysterious Infected super-powered Ghouls in the sewers that are protecting something, or someone.

Cloning supers to create a glorious clone army to stand against the Tyrant's robot army.

It's like some kind of ultimate weapon.

Ashley's equivalent for villains has exactly the same language:

We've procured an Aspect of the Pillar.

Definite hint they're keeping this a secret from Mender Silos, but it doesn't specify how exactly they got their magic crystal. Note that it is an Aspect of the Pillar, the Pillar itself being the giant one in the middle of the Ouroboros citadel, so they are at the very least doing the mystical time-travel equivalent of borrowing your neighbour's Wi-Fi access.
Which just makes the Midnighters even more awesome.

Regarding ALL of the theories on this thread.. and then some that haven't been mentioned, but exist.. I say..

ALL OF THE ABOVE.

I think the Coming Storm is likely all of Nemesis' various, overly complex Xanatos gambits failing catastrophically all at once, resulting in a thirty Xanatos pileup of epic, disastrous proportions.

With the Rikti invading, the Shivan masters invading, the 5th Column taking over and altering history, a bunch of crap with Praetoria going down, something involving the Origin of Power, Rularuu (hello Darren Wade), and who knows what else all in play at once, and all going horribly, horribly wrong.

...unless, of course we are looking at things from a perspective outside of time.

It's easy to imagine the devastation this could cause to Paragon (and the fun events to be had in-game) and also the flow on consequences of such a thing that might make Nemesis decide he has to stop it. How do you counter a Time Storm, obviously you need to have a base of operations set up outside of normal space-time...oh, he has! Next you need to recruit heroes and villains (anyone with the strength to do it that has been entrusted with the secret) to hop through time to course-correct (thanks LOST) the timeline.

As far as in-game events go, I could imagine the Coming Storm being a mixture of enemies from thoughout the timeline, 60's Arachnos leading raids on the present, Cimeoran troops led by Imperious attacking Atlas Park, new enemy groups from the future travelling back to endanger the present day. It'd be neat!
