The Power of God in the thunderstorm
The psalm speaks of the LORD 18 times and the "voice of the LORD" 7 times.
The Canaanites believed that Baal controlled the storm and the lightning. But the things that psalms attributes to Baal, the Bible attributes to YHWH.
The showdown between Elijah and the prophets of Baal is about who controls these the storm, the lightning, and the weath.
