About the Thunderbolt lightning

A thunderbolt is a bright flash of lightning together with the crack of thunder that follows it. The lightning is a huge spark of electricity, and the thunder is the sound its blast of heat makes in the air. You see the flash first because light travels faster than sound. Add this printable to a storm-science lesson and trace the zigzag bolt down.

  • A thunderbolt is a lightning flash paired with a clap of thunder.
  • You see the flash before you hear the thunder because light travels faster than sound.
