A metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two different things by stating that one thing is another. A simile is a figure of speech that compares two different things using the words "like" or "as." In order to come up with a metaphor or simile using "a big storm" and "a hot day," we can think of the characteristics or effects of each of these phrases and compare them.

To form this metaphor, you can think about the qualities of a big storm: heavy rain, strong winds, thunder, and lightning. Then, think of an object or creature that possesses similar qualities, such as a raging beast.
