To wonder what constitutes an 'Mumsnet storm'? (Royal related)

Apparently.

I've just started reading Catherine Mayer's new book about Prince Charles. There is a passage in the prologue about criticism of the the Cambridges' March 2014 trip to the Maldives (leaving baby George at home) which the author calls 'a manufactured tempest in a child's teacup'.

Discussion of Netmums, Mumsnet, Twitter.

Then the following;

"Had there been outrage on Mumsnet? Not according to Katie O'Donovan, Mumsnet's head of communications, who emails that there were 'just over 300 responses, which isn't really a "storm" by Mumsnet's standards. Not at all unanimous criticism of the couple.....'."

So how many comments makes a storm? I'm curious now.
