Storm in a tea cup - 茶杯里的雷雨。能有多大？言下之意就是：大惊小怪的。
同义词：Don't make a big fuss out of nothing or something trivial.
I think it's only storm in a tea cup - after all who gives a damn about the investment banks.
不要大惊小怪的，没人关心那些投行。

I had an argument with a colleague yesterday over some technical stuff. we were both a bit too serious and there were some exchange of words. But everything is OK now and what happened yesterday was just a storm in a tea cup.
