lightning and thunder both occur at the same time why do you see the Lightning before you hear the thunder

Verified Answer :

Because the light from it travels to you about 874 thousand times
as fast as the sound does, so the hearing part falls behind the seeing
part.

Great question!

Thunder and lightning happen at the same time, but because light travels faster than sound, we see lightning before we hear thunder.
