After you here thunder every 6 seconds until the next lightning strike it is a mile.
To tell how far away a storm is note the seconds between the appearance of lightning and the sound of thunder. Every second between lightning and thunder represents one mile.
It depends on if the storm is right on top of you or a couple miles away to know how many miles away you are from a storm wait for lighting to come then count until you hear thunder and the last number you stopped on is how far away the storm is
If you count the number of seconds from when you see the flash of lightening to when you hear the thunder, you will have a rough estimate as how far the storm is.

Lightning without thunder during a storm is typically caused by a phenomenon known as heat lightning. Heat lightning occurs when lightning strikes far away and the sound of thunder does not travel as far as the light from the strike. This can happen when the storm is too far away for the sound waves to reach your location, resulting in the appearance of lightning without the accompanying thunder.
You can generally determine how far away you are from the place of origin by counting 1 one-hundred, 2 one hundred, etc until you hear thunder and divide that number by two. That is how many miles away you are.

Lightning can strike up to 30 miles from the parent storm cell, though such cases are rare.
by 500 miles far the waves are just normal.
Five seconds is one mile away.Ten seconds is two miles away.
