Your first article posted just fine...you should go back and cancel it, 
because articles do not expire on this group and the duplication just 
wastes server space.
As for the lack of responses...be a bit more patient. The first post was 
just a few days ago. Some subjects get faster responses than others.

You might want to try the blob pattern (or possibly the blob pigment) in 
MegaPOV on a layered texture to get the "eyes". The spiral pattern could 
be combined with this to make a spiraling texture that covers a specific 
spot.
As you mentioned, your storms are far too regularly placed...they also 
have very sharp edges, too much color variation, too little size 
variation, and don't overlap well. You should be able to use the blob or 
spherical patterns and layered textures to fix most of these problems.
