Answer:
Metaphor
Explanation:
A metaphor draws a sharper comparison than a simile. A metaphor is a figurative language that describes an object by comparing the object with another unrelated thing. It does not give the object its literal meaning. It is usually expressed in a phrase or clause by associating two things that are unrelated to make meaning. For example, when someone says Brian has a river valley knowledge in Mathematics.

The other parts describe the relatively objective circumstances. This one, with the repetition of "no wonder" evokes a sense that there is no choice and no other way. Furthermore, the imagery (e.g. "the dampest chill you ever felt") is pretty distressing.</span>
