If you could have a storm in your teacup, it would be a tiny storm! This phrase means a big deal being made over nothing.
major commotion over a trivial matter, major fuss over an unimportant issue


Like " Tempest in a teapot " this means a big uproar over a small misunderstanding .

What else can I help you with?
