Re: thunder length?

I'm surrounded by mountains (north italy). That morning there were a very
lot of bolts: could so many of them, very next to each other, have generated
many thunders that appeared to be just one?

Thank you all. Yes, I didn't belive really that it was a thunder, but
this low noise lasting 15/20 min was a lot strange for me. Luckily we
never had twisters (our landscape don't allow them) so I didn't think to
them either.

I was thinking it might have been a downburst, distant hail, or even
something twisty.

Where do you live?

(Unless you have Mt. Everest in your backyard, the local landscape won't
have a big impact on severe thunderstorms or 'naders.)
