Also, Thunder II falls off right when your rotation is ready to cast another Thunder II. Thunder III will show an additional few seconds which aren't needed as you'll be casting another Thunder. This is what I've noticed. I do use Thunder III to start a fight/phase though and I'm PC with a Naga mouse so that is a bit of a difference as well.
Yep and I've actually tried to implement Thunder II into my rote but the difference was almost non existent so I went back with what I like.
That and I always get my first Thunder off with a quickcast and hope to ride the procs.
