to look very angry · to have a furious expression
You've probably seen someone whose face just screams "Don't mess with me right now!" 😠 This expression is perfect for describing someone who looks incredibly angry or upset, often because something bad has happened. It's like their face is dark and stormy, just like thunderclouds before a big storm! ⛈️
💡 **Fun Fact!** This idiom focuses on the *visible* expression of anger or displeasure. You wouldn't typically use it if someone is just mildly annoyed; it's for when their anger is very clear on their face. You might say, "He had a face like thunder after the meeting," to describe a palpable sense of anger. ⚡️
When would you most likely say someone "has a face like thunder"? A. When they are laughing loudly at a joke. B. When they are quietly concentrating on a puzzle. C. When they just received very bad news and look visibly enraged.
