Is lightning a myth or fact?
Surely you have heard thunder and seen lightening during a storm - what you can see and measure is fact not myth.
Why does lightning appear before thunder in rainy season?
If the center of the storm is directly over you, the thunder and lightning occur simultaneously - and startlingly loudly. But most of the time, we see the lightning well before we hear the thunder because you see things instantaneously, due to the speed of light. But you hear things much more slowly. It takes five seconds for sound to travel a mile. Hence, if you see lightning, then hear the thunder ten seconds later, the center of the storm is two miles away.
What is the actual method for finding the distance you are from the storm using lightning and thunder?
For a long time it was thought by many people that the number of seconds after the lightning strikes is the miles the center of the storm is from you. Although this does show how light travels faster than sound, this system is wrong. The actual method for finding the distance the heart of the storm is from you is by counting after you see lightning; and stop counting after you hear the thunder. Now, for every five seconds after the lightning struck until you hear the thunder, it is one mile away. So if ten seconds go by between lightning and thunder, the center of the storm is two miles away.

What do you see first in a thunderstorm?
It depends on what distance from you the storm develops. If it develops a long way off, you'll see tall mushrooming tops. At night distance lightning would be visible. If it develops closer you may see darkening clouds, flashes of lightning in the storm and near the ground. As the storm moves closer a shelf cloud indicating the cool air outflow would be visible along with lightning and a curtain of precipitation. If it develops overhead, it might sneak up on you with wind, rain, hail, lightning and darkening skies.
