     • Well, lightning causes thunder. Lightning is a discharge of electricity. A single stroke of lightning can heat the air around it to 30,000°C (54,000°F)! This extreme heating causes the air to expand explosively fast. The expansion creates a shock wave that turns into a booming sound wave, known as thunder.

   Why is Thunder called Thunder?

   • The word thunder is derived from the 'Thor', the Norse god of thunder, known for his ability to forge thunderbolts. Essentially, thunder is the sound produced by lightning. When lightning strikes, the narrow channel of air through which it travels reaches temperatures of up to 30,000 °C almost instantly.

   Why does Thunder last longer than lightning?

   • Thunder lasts longer than lightning due to the time it takes for the sound to travel from different parts of the lightning channel. The intensity and type of sound heard by the listener depends upon the conditions on the atmosphere and how close the listener is to the lightning - the louder the thunder, the closer the lightning.

   Is Thunder a dangerous sound?

   • In rare cases, the sound of thunder at very close range has been known to cause injury to humans and damage to property. How far away is a thunderstorm? Thunder will always be heard after the lightning strike is seen owing to the fact that light travels significantly faster than sound.
