It emerges during the inquiry regarding the loss of the USS Wilimington that Captain Lamarr had seriously over stressed the ship's engines by ordering warp 7 while within the storm; although the Wilmington was quite capable of maintaining this speed under normal conditions, during an ion storm it was far too great a load.
