All we know right now is that the egg event and the Storm Over Gridania may be related. But we've been given no proof that they are. They don't seem to be linked as of right now. If SE puts up some lore saying that Jihli's archons are the ones making it rain all the time and such, then we will have a connection.

it's obvious to me that the Storm Over Gridania event is going to lead to something. SE didn't just add it for no reason, for it not to have an ending. But as of right now Hatching-tide has no clear connection to it.
Didnt they Mention something about "Grand Companies" too with the Dreamer's Quests and what not?
