Which is stronger lighting or thunder?
Thunder is the sound that lightning makes when it strikes so it isn't possible to answer this question. Lightning is a reaction to rising heat from the earth's surface combining with cold air in the clouds. This creates a negatively charged bolt of electricity which streaks through the clouds, and around 20% of this electricity will "attack" a positively charged item, usually on the ground. Since lightning is faster than the speed of sound, it breaks the sound barrier making a sound we call thunder.
Why do people call cumulonimbus clouds thunder heads?
People may refer to cumulonimbus clouds as "thunderheads" because these large, towering clouds are often associated with thunderstorm activity. Cumulonimbus clouds are capable of producing thunder, lightning, heavy rainfall, and even hail, hence the association with thunder.
Is thunder the sound of warm air colliding with cold air?
You are wrong. Thunder is the noise made when the lightning causes the air to heat up and expand suddenly. When this explodes we hear the sound we call thunder.
Why are thunder storms usually accompanied by lighting and thunder?
They ALWAYS happen together. The lightning you see is an electrical discharge from ice crystals rubing together in clouds. This makes an almighty crack sound, and a bright light is observed. You hear the thunder after you see the lightning because sounds travels slower than light. But in fact, the sound and the light came to be at the same time. The further away you are from the strom the larger the delay between seeing the light and hearing the sound is.
Does lightning make any noise?
No. The visual portion of the energy wave that we see as lightning it's self does not make noise, however this energy wave also displaces air. The air that is displaced by the negative and positive ion charge (that bolt we see) is often heard as a loud "crack" and the air that moves fast enough creates a sonic boom which we hear as thunder.

What exactly is the roar from thunder?
Thunder is the sound caused by the rapid expansion and contraction of air surrounding a lightning bolt as it heats up to temperatures hotter than the sun. This expansion and contraction creates shock waves that produce the booming sound we hear as thunder.
