When lighting appears in the remote distance and appears to produce no thunder sound it is called?

When lightning appears in the remote distance and appears to produce no thunder sound, it is popularly known as "heat lightning." Meteorologists will tell you that there really is no such thing as a distinct type of lightning that is not followed by thunder. All lightning produces thunder, but it is only audible for a distance of some 15-20 miles from the storm. At night, lightning can be seen for distances of up to 125 miles if the conditions are right. So when lightning is seen but no thunder is heard, you are simply too far away from the storm.

What is it called when lightning that appears in remote distance and appears to produce no thunder?

It's popularly known as "heat lightning," but meteorologists will tell you that there is really no such thing as a type of lightning that produces no thunder and is distinct from lightning that produces audible thunder. All lightning produces thunder, but it can only be heard for a distance of at most 15-20 miles under normal conditions. At night in certain conditions, lightning can be visible 125 miles away. You may not be able to hear the thunder because you are too far from the storm, but others within that 15 mile radius can hear thunder following the lightning strike.
