I think the color green signifies an abundant supply of CO2. These are the tears of Mother Gaia.

Green indicates a significant hail core. It filters sunlight down to the ground in the green spectrum, like a prism.

WOW!
A friend’s daughter recently moved to SD. She’s kind of re-thinking it based upon all the rough weather they’ve had this spring. Lots of downed trees on her new property to deal with, and so much rain you can’t get any clean-up done. :(

And the inclusion of a significant hail core indicates horizontal cyclonic rotational action producing the larger hail stones which can more easily convert to vertical positioning and the dropping of a funnel cloud to become a tornado.

Hmmm... Still doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

If she’s already rethinking and hasn’t been in a winter out there yet she’ll be back in Wisconsin in no time Diana

I once saw a sky that looked similar to that, on April 3, 1974 when we lived in Xenia Ohio.
Global cooling back then

You got that right. I now live in the northeast corner of Wyoming and I have seen these green thunderstorms that produce hail. I was on my way back from Spearfish, SD and I had to hide with my vehicle under an I-90 bridge for 2 hours a few of weeks ago. The happiest man in Belle Fourche, SD owns a glass business and his business has been good due to hail stones up to 4” in in diameter (10 cm diameter for the Eurotrash).

Between the severe weather and the friggen sunspots, it has been one hell of a week.

I saw lightning that color when hurricane Alicia came onshore in 1983. We were about 30 miles inland and missed the eye wall by a few miles at best.
