When lightning appears in the remote distance and appears to produce no thunder sound, it is popularly known as "heat lightning."
Meteorologists will tell you that there really is no such thing as a distinct type of lightning that is not followed by thunder.
All lightning produces thunder, but it is only audible for a distance of some 15-20 miles from the storm. At night, lightning can be seen for distances of up to 125 miles if the conditions are right. So when lightning is seen but no thunder is heard, you are simply too far away from the storm.
Well, thunder doesn't actually produce lightning. Lightning produces thunder.
It still produces thunder - however... the further the sound wave travels through the air, the more it weakens. If you're a long way from the storm - chances are the sound of the thunder will have dissipated before it gets to you.
