The '''Everstorm''' (Alethi: [[File: Kalak.svg|20px]] [[File: Modern zeras.svg|22px]] romanization: ''Kalazeras'', lit. ''Eternal Storm''){{file ref|Alethi_Glyphs_Page_1.jpg|Alethi Glyphs Page 1}} is a powerful weather pattern on [[Roshar]] similar to a [[highstorm]], but one that circles the world in the opposite direction. It was summoned by [[stormform]] [[listener]]s during the [[Battle of Narak]] at the end of the [[War of Reckoning]].{{book ref|sa2|89}} The period in which it passes over a given area is sometimes referred to as the '''Evernight'''.{{book ref|sa3|72}}

The Everstorm movestravels somewhat slower than a highstorm,at roughly 120 miles per hour.{{wob ref|10231}}, about a third the speed of a [[Highstorm]]. It takes roughly nine days to circle the entire globe, three of which it spends crossing the Rosharan continent.{{book ref|sa2.5|13}}{{book ref|sa3|35}} Its time of arrival does fluctuate slightly, and precise predictions can be inaccurate. Fortunately, its high visibility and lower speed give the people of Roshar plenty of time to seek shelter.{{book ref|sa3|77}} It is not yet clear whether the Everstorm's frequency is affected by the time of the year or other variables.
