let me give you a clearer explanation heat plays the key role for thermal energy first let me explain the difference between hot and cold. hot is a certain area, object or point that has a large concentration of heat and cold is a certain area, object or point that has less heat this.heat is a completely different topic from hot and cold and temperature is the law on how much heat is measured in physics heat is energy and it travels to one place to another. Cold temperatures can be achieve by removing as much heat as possible. When manipulating thermal energy is the manipulation of heat in the atmosphere if you can manipulate that you can control temperature in the atmosphere you can completely remove heat creating absolute zero it is the temperature where heat is completely absent and since water easily chemically react to a deference in temperature that's how ice or steam is formed here's an example our planet is always warm because it get's it's heat from the sun and are atmosphere keeps the heat in are planet if the sun rays does not reach the earth temperature will always be absolute zero and the planet will be covered in ice since the earth surface is mostly covered in water creating an ice age it's the age when the earth is at a certain point in the solar system where the sun's rays did not react the earth. energy as in heat if manipulated can be stored is certain areas like for example heat that is compress into a simple form like for example a torch or flame you can easily redirect it as a thermal wave a.k.a. a fire energy blast but to use it you must absorb a large amount of heat on other words energy like for example fire, lightning, sunlight, or even natural heat in the atmosphere that when the freezing power comes in you have to absorb enough energy before you attack so it doesn't necessary have to be stored in the body you can simply make a sphere of fire concentrate it to your hand then fired just like a lightning rod that redirects lightning so the absorption there releasing of that stored up heat will be instantaneous. When heat is controlled it is possible to create pseudo wind manipulation effect wind is caused by difference in the atmosphere also pressure is a dependent variable for temperature in other words [pV = nRT] when molecules are cooled in one spot the molecules slow down and the pressure drops rapidly then air around it will be drawn there, generating wind finally you can manipulate the wind if you heat points around it to agitate the molecules when this method is used it makes it seem like you can manipulate wind. you see air molecules will always gather to cold areas because of the low pressure and air molecules separate and disperses when temperature is high because of the high pressure that is how wind is formed so in other words the colder it gets the more air molecules gather then instantly shifts the temperatures causing the air molecules to move the hotter it gets the faster the air molecules will move but only at a spinning direction just like how tornadoes are formed. So this kind of temperature manipulation can create only create powerful tornadoes.
