Why can't you see thunder?
Thunder is our name for the sound made by lightning. The reason there is (usually) a delay between when you see the bolt of lightning and hear the thunder is that light travels more quickly than does sound. This is the reason that you can count seconds between seeing lightning and hearing thunder to figure out how close the lightning is to you. When the lightning is closer to you, the sound doesn't take as much time to travel to your ears and thus the gap between the lightning and thunder is shorter. So you can't see thunder because it's merely a sound - but you can see the source of that sound.
Why would you have to watch out if the flash of lightning and the sound of thunder seemed to occur together?
If thunder and lightning occur together close to you, you are dangerously close to a lightning bolt.
What causes the booming sound of thunder?
The booming sound of thunder is caused by the rapid expansion and contraction of air surrounding a lightning bolt. When lightning strikes, it heats the air to temperatures as high as 30,000 degrees Fahrenheit in a fraction of a second, causing the air to expand explosively. This rapid expansion creates shock waves that we hear as thunder. The sound can vary in intensity and duration depending on factors like the distance of the lightning strike and atmospheric conditions.

Heat lightning is a term used to describe lightning that can be seen from a distance without hearing thunder. It is usually from a distant storm and is not directly associated with the thunderstorm you are observing. Regular lightning produces thunder because it is closer to you, and the sound of thunder travels slower than light, causing a delay between the flash of lightning and the sound of thunder.
Is thunder electricity?
Thunder is not electricity itself, but rather the sound that results from the rapid expansion and contraction of air heated by a lightning bolt. Lightning is a discharge of electricity that occurs during a thunderstorm, which can produce the sound we hear as thunder.
