Tempest Peak (84°31′S 164°11′E) is a sharp ice-covered peak (3,410 m) with a subordinate summit (3, 345 in.) just southward, standing 3 nautical miles (6 km) north-northeast of Storm Peak in the Marshall Mountains, Queen Alexandra Range. So named by the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE) (1961–62) because of the stormy conditions experienced in the area.
