When we think of thunderstorm in terms of mythology we usually think of gods being angry, sad or war. I wonder if there are cultures out there that think of thunderstorm just Gods farting.

      The really loud claps, like wall shaking ones were them cheering at a strike

    In Norse mythology, it’s Thor riding his carriage.

      But he is riding his carriage during combat with the giants and then the actual lighting is when he throws his hammer? But I could be wrong, it was a couple of years since I studied this

        Thor is not just the god of thunder, but weather in general. Thunder was his carriage and lightning sprang from his eyes. I suppose thunder could also be from his hammer Mjølner.

        I’ve heard your version too, but I think think that’s a modern revision, including the lightning from his hammer Mjølner.

    When the thunderstorm is very far away and I can listen just the faintest noise i I like to say that the sky’s stomach is rumbling.

    Gods farting

    When I was a kid, my parents or grandparents (don’t remember exactly) used to say, they are playing bowling up there.
