Make sure the weather is Thunderstorm and not rain. You can confirm the weather by looking at the weather symbol on top left corner of the screen. Thunderstorm icon will be a cloud with a lightning bolt sign.
Apart from that, you will also need a good amount of Pokeballs specially Ultraballs, to catch Thundurus because Thundurus is a legendary Pokemon after all.
