Default Storm jib?

Check out Sail magazine for this month (maybe last month by now). There
is an article on storm sails.

Okay, let me try this again. Sometimes the hardest thing about getting
the right answer is knowing enough to ask the right question! Thanks to
those who answered previously. I now know a little about jib
nomenclature. But there was nothing about storm jibs I could find. Is it
just an any old tough little sail? Would a foot 90% to the mast qualify
as a storm jib? What is the general theory for a good storm jib?
Anything smaller than 100% made out of tough material?
