"eructation" seems to work. My Unabridged has as a reference, "Mount Aetna hath, in times past, eructated such huge goblets of fire. . . - Howell."

"Eructation" also applies to belching.

Devastation?

For air, "tempest"?

Yeah, I know, it's one of my favorite words, along with "borborygm". I like to casually drop them into the conversation whenever I get the chance.
