Depends on how far away the event is and what the temperature is as this affects the speed of sound.
For example, let's say you're 600 meters away and the temperature has no affect.
The speed of sound would be roughly 340 m/s so the time it would take to hear the sound would be 600/340 = 1.76 seconds
The speed of light (c) is 3.0 X 10^8 m/s so the time it would take to see the event would be 600/3 X 10^8 = 2 X 10^-7
Subtract: 1.76 - (2 X 10^-7) = approx. 1.76
