In Norse mythology, the god of thunder and lightning was named Thor. He had a magic hammer that he threw at his enemies that created the lightning. As Thor traveled across the sky, the rumble of his chariot was heard as thunder. Thor ruled the sky and was the most powerful of the sons of Odin, the king of all the gods.

The term "thundersnow" originated from meteorological observations describing a rare weather phenomenon where thunder and lightning occur during a snowstorm. It combines the elements of thunder, which is typically associated with thunderstorms, and snow, resulting in a unique atmospheric occurrence. The term has gained popularity in recent years, particularly in weather reporting, to highlight these unusual winter storms.
Yes, technically thunder and lightning originate at the same time. However, light travels much faster than sound so even though they start simultaneously you will hear the thunder after you see the lightning unless you are very close to the bolt.
Yes, the noun thunder is a mass noun. Multiples of thunder are expressed as the object of a preposition (a lot of thunder, claps of thunder, rolls of thunder, etc.), or using an adjective (loud thunder, rumbling thunder, deafening thunder, etc.)
No, thunder doesn't always mean lightning. Thunder is the sound produced by the rapid expansion of air around a lightning bolt as it heats up creating a shock wave. So while thunder is commonly associated with lightning, it is possible to have thunder without seeing the accompanying lightning, especially if the lightning is far away or obstructed from view.

The sound caused by the rapid expansion of air along an electrical strike is thunder. Lightning heats the air rapidly, causing it to expand quickly, which creates a shock wave that we hear as thunder.
