The time it takes to hear thunder after lightning strikes is typically about 5 seconds for every mile of distance between you and the lightning.
If you hear thunder long after seeing lightning, it indicates the storm is moving away from you. Thunder is the sound produced by lightning, so the delay suggests the storm is at a significant distance. As long as the delay is significant enough, the risk of being struck by lightning is greatly reduced.
You hear the sound, called thunder, after the flash because light travels many times faster than sound and therefore reaches you first.
