Emperor Palpatine vs. Lord Voldemort

I'm not making up. Start of Book 6, second page, it talks about a freak hurricane, which we later learn was magicked. A large spell which causes something that covers a large area.

Actually, it was a giant.

Actually, I've just checked - Death Eaters. With suspected giant involvement, but no certain evidence. We're both wrong.

JK Rowling has been less than specific in most of her descriptions of magic and types of magic available in her universe, while Palpatine's powers are a little more well-known.

Kinda hard to make a match without attempting to further extrapolate what the characters are capable of.

Force Lightning, Force Choke, gg. Never even draws the lightsaber.

One would have to assume that Voldemort would come prepared with a simple Defensive charm active to negate an obvious attack such as Force Lightning.

Voldemort would be able to stun Palpatine with a voiceless spell, which should break his concentration enough to set up another defense.

According to Vader in the books, Palpatine may be good enough to read people's minds (such as Vaders). Palpatine may be prepared for whatever Voldy was going to throw at him. Not to mention that Palpy would simply dodge anything Voldy through at him.
