Tempest Drake was part of the criminal trio called the Weather Girls.
History
Tempest Drake knows her best friends Tyler Crenshaw and Carly Meadows since before kindergarten. They have been known to steal valuables using their powers.
When the girls came to Smallville, they were after a treasure map to a hidden time capsule. It supposedly led to millions of dollars of gold bars. They entered the "Miss Sweet Corn" beauty pageant as a distraction. Carly was planning on stealing the money before the other girls could get to it. She walked into a flower shop, but the room froze in seconds, killing her. At the Talon, Tyler revealed to Tempest that she took "care" of Carly. Kara Kent asked them for help with her makeup, but they ignored her and made rude comments. Kara left and walked past the frozen flower shop, finding Carly dead.
After a rehearsal, Tyler and Tempest went to a back room and talked about Carly and sticking to the plan of using the pageant as a distraction. Jimmy Olsen snapped a photo of them, and Tempest told Tyler to "do her thing". As Jimmy got into his car, cold air and ice started filling it. He was unable to get out, but he saw Tyler in his rear view mirror. Just as Jimmy passed out, Kara pulled the car door off, saving him. Tyler witnessed this act. Kara was backstage at the Talon when Tyler and Tempest approached her. They told her that they know about her powers, and asked her to help them steal the time capsule. They showed her a photo of the gold before it was hidden, and Kara saw a Kryptonian medallion. Thinking she had to get to the map before anyone else, Kara broke into the time capsule, betraying Tyler and Tempest. Later, they had her arrested at the pageant. According to Kara, a gust of wind blew the map away.
Clark Kent found the girls digging for the medallion in a parking lot. He tried to get it away from them, but Tempest formed a tornado, blowing kryptonite on Clark. Kara showed up and stopped Tempest and Tyler. Both girls are presumed captured.
