Invisible storm bug

Summary

The storm becomes invisible in some rounds, storm timer resets to 0, storm cannot be seen on the minimap/map or in the game, but it continues to have an effect (you continue to take damage if you are inside). This happens in random rounds and at random times (it can be 10 seconds after generation or 2 minutes later). This seems to only happen in maps published or updated after v37.10
