Mushrooms are fungi, and require water, which usually falls as rain during a storm.
Sort of. Mushrooms need a bit of moisture, and thunder is often followed by rain. So it's not really the thunder & lightning that brings the mushrooms out, but the accompanying rain that does it.Only rain would work just as well, but not be quite as noticeable.Lightning and thunder cannot cause mushrooms to grow, but they are usually accompanied by rain, and fungi (a mushroom is part of a fungus) grow best in moist environments.
Yes, it is possible for lightning to occur without making any sound. This type of lightning is known as "silent lightning" or "heat lightning," and it occurs when the lightning is too far away for the sound to be heard.
Lightning typically travels from clouds to the ground, but it can also occur between clouds or within a cloud. This happens when electrical charges build up in the clouds and discharge towards the ground, creating a lightning strike.
Thunder, lightning, wind, and rain occur in the Earth's atmosphere.
Lightning comes when two weather "fronts" come together and moisture particles collide. Rain = moisture in one of those fronts, hence, lightning and rain are often together. Lightning does occur even when it is not raining. ==Answered By: whatrukidding==
It isn't the lightning, but the rain, which promotes the growth of mushrooms.
lightning bolts occur in the clouds.

Mushrooms can grow after a thunderstorm because the moisture and humidity in the air create ideal conditions for their growth. The lightning may also release nitrogen, which can benefit the mushrooms' growth. Overall, the combination of moisture, humidity, and nutrients from the lightning can stimulate mushroom growth.
Mushrooms often appear after lightning strikes due to the intense heat and energy released during a strike, which can alter the soil and stimulate the growth of fungi. Lightning can also break down organic matter and release nutrients, creating a favorable environment for mushrooms to thrive. Additionally, the moisture from rain following a storm provides the necessary conditions for fungi to fruit.

Lightning does occur in different places, but many more times then 2!
If thunder and lightning occur together close to you, you are dangerously close to a lightning bolt.

When lightning and thunder occur simultaneously, it is known as a lightning strike. Lightning is the electrical discharge seen in the sky, while thunder is the sound produced by the rapid expansion and contraction of air around the lightning bolt.
