Basically. Traditionally a thundershower is a weak storm with light rain, and little lightning activity. Thunderstorms are more intense and contain more lightning, rain and can warrant severe weather warnings, and possibly tornadoes. However, the National Weather Service does not use the term 'thundershower' anymore. Their reasoning is that if a storm produces lightning, it's a thunderstorm, and the term 'thundershower' just confuses most people. Hope this helps.

A thunderstorm is a storm that produces lighting and thunder. Not all storms that produce rain are thunderstorms. There are also thunderstorms that do not produce rain.
