"It's raining cats and dogs"
"The rain is as cold as ice"
"It's so cold, we might be in Antarctica"
"Winter is as freezing as a polar bear's home"
"The sun won't shine until it is a million years later"

Kaleb walked outside. "Oh, Mom, it's raining cats and dogs- how am I going to use my kite?" He shut the door, not letting the rain come in. "Not only that- the rain is as cold as ice. It's 22 degrees!" Kaleb's mom said. "Oh no, this wasn't the right time to buy a kite. Winter is as freezing as a polar bear's home, I hate this so much!" Kaleb said. "Oh, Kaleb, don't be so sad," said Kaleb's dad. "We can find a day, maybe tomorrow. It's windy tomorrow." "Oh, be quiet! It's raining all week! It will also be cold! It's so cold, we might be in Antarctica!" Kaleb's aunt (his dad's side) said. "Oh, man," Kaleb's dad said. Kaleb sighed, and put his kite away. "The sun won't shine until it is a million years later," he said.

Yes, it is B, it is a defining relative clause, notice that without the relative clause the sentence feels empty <em>Only the players are going to get sunburned today. </em>

<em>Only the people that/who arrived first can enter.</em>
<em>This the house that/which I used to live in.</em>

<em>This country, which was a super power in the past, is still facing amajor economic crisis.</em>
