A thunderstorm is a storm where you hear thunder and see lightning. Usually there is heavy rain in a thunderstorm. Thunderstorms are electric storms. When there is about to be a thunderstorm, a cumulonimbus cloud forms, often in a clear blue sky. (When a cloudâs name ends in nimbus, it means rain or snow is falling from the cloud.) The cloud increases in size and begins to build up peaks, which become very dark.
In order to understand thunder causes, one needs to know about lightning first. Well! Lightning is the electricity discharged during a thunderstorm. Lightning is caused due to build-up and discharge of electrical energy in the thunderstorm clouds, which average about 15,000 to 25,000 feet above sea level. Lightning usually occurs within clouds, between the cloud and air or between the ground and cloud.
