The Storm at the Red Sea
Commentators widely agree that this verse isn't just general poetry. It's a vivid description of the scene at the Red Sea crossing. While the book of Exodus doesn't detail a storm, scholars note that other ancient Jewish sources, like the historian Josephus, confirm the tradition of a massive storm with thunder, lightning, and an earthquake, through which God delivered Israel.
