Yes, thunderstorms can and do happen in the winter in almost all parts of earth. Thunderstorms are more likely to occur during the winter season in southern US states, but do occur even during snow storms in the north.
You do; the phenomenon is known as thundersnow.
However, winter thunderstorms are a rarity; and the reason is because of air temperature. Storms form when a warm front collides with a cold front (or vice versa), forcing air molecules and water droplets to rise, circulate and collide, thereby acquiring a static electrical charge.
In the winter, the temperature differential -- both between frontal systems, and between the sky and the ground -- is usually much lower. Not only don't cloud tops reach the massive heights which they do in warmer weather, but the air and water particles don't rub together as violently. This is why even a gale-force blizzard usually doesn't generate the electricity needed to overcome air resistance.
Winter thunderstorms are rare because the air is more stable - strong updrafts cannot form because the surface temperatures during the winter are colder.
There is lightning in winter, but there is more of it in summer because the heat of summer provides more energy.
There isn't enough heat in winter to generate a thunderstorm.
Thunderstorms are fueled primarily by warm, moist air. In the winter, the air is generally cooler and drier than it is in the other seasons, making thunderstorms less common.
its because of the climate
it does
Winter storms occur durring the winter months
Some golf feilds have huge metal poles that start to beep uncontrollably when a thunderstorm or linghtning stricke is about to occur.
Because if there wasn't thunder or lightning, it wouldn't be called a thunderstorm.

were do thunder storms occur
when there is a severe thunderstorm
Mostly in the eastern areas

No, many thunderstorms occur in temperate climates. A thunderstorm may be part of a tropical disturbance, however.

yes.
a thunderstorm could happen anywhere since it is formed with clouds...
