Morphology

roaringly = roaring (transparent) = roar + ing + ly

Formed by adding the productive adverbial suffix '-ly' to the adjective 'roaring'; the adverbial meaning is directly predictable.

Etymology

Roaringly comes from the simple word roar, which means 'a very loud sound', plus the adverb ending -ly. So to do something roaringly is to do it in a loud, energetic, or very strong way, like a lion's roar or a cheering crowd.
