Green sky is caused by the reflection of hundreds of thousand pieces of hail in the hail core. Many times when there is extremely large hail, that means that there is a significant updraft in a very intense storm system.... Which in turn, when coupled with strong in flow, that updraft gets stronger, and cross winds cause the storm to rotate faster and faster. Ultimately creating a tornado. So, tornados and green skies (caused by dense hail cores) have connections but are not directly related to each other.
Hail shafts reflect as a white color in a storm. Green color is usually thought to be from extremely high moisture content in the storm. You can often see a green sky without large hail or tornado.
Everyone here is wrong. Hail reflects blue spectrum. Tornadoes usually happen in the afternoon or evening. Yellow light mixes with blue and makes green.
Been in one and it's absolutely beautiful. It's like you're looking at two different worlds😮 If I saw that cloud, I'd be grabbing my pets and hiding in the basement. You are brave and I understand that those clouds are amazing to watch😊
Maddawwg45 I know something even worse than both rain wrapped & night tornadoes... a nighttime heavily rain wrapped tornado. That happened with the Lubbock, Texas Tornado in 1970.
That thunder reminds me of the tornado we got on April 4, 1974. I awoke at 5:35 in the morning to that same type of thunder in the distance. One minute later, we got hit by a very fast-moving tornado that damaged our house and destroyed the one across the street and over to the left of our driveway. It was completely slabbed. The family survived, all because they were clinging to the toilette plumbing. Two of them were injured enough that they required treatment at the hospital, but they all made it through. Our street, driveways and yards were all stripped of grass and dirt along with the pavement. I'll never forget having to step down from our carport into the driveway, because all that pavement was missing. It was utterly terrifying!
Some of you guys obviously have no idea what you're looking for. This is some of the best footage I've seen of the most severe storms we've ever had in Northern Illinois. I've tried capturing footage of tornadoes myself but they've never been as clear as this. One of the most spectacular parts of this is the extreme difference in the light. When severe storms like this occur, it is so difficult to get digital cameras to balance the really rare kind of light that happens during storms like these. And somehow you managed to set your equipment perfectly. I feel like I'm standing right outside with you. Honestly, those lightning strikes scare the s*** out of me and most people would not have the balls to keep standing out there after that. Not to mention the, um, tornado coming after that? LOL!!! I really don't know how else to say but that you are an incredible human being and I certainly appreciate everything you went through to post this. Thank you!
Someone mentioned Bob Ross. I can imagine this 'Yes and here in the distance is a happy little tornado." In all seriousness I'm glad it wasn't bad for you and you were safe.
This day was the start of a crazy week for myself and my family. I’m from the Birmingham, AL area and was on the way to St Louis to visit my wife’s cousin. We stayed at the Marriott(I think) Union Station downtown. As we approached ST Louis, we could see the horizon was VERY dark and ominous. I dropped my family off at the door, and pulled around to the large, partially open air canopy on the back side of the hotel with booming thunder and lightning cracking over my head. I sat in the rental for several minutes, scared to move because of the lightning. I made a run for it and got into the hotel. No sooner I got to our room, tornado sirens went off as one of the two tornadic storms that day hit Lambert. A Cardinals game that was going on or about to start, was postponed if I remember correctly. We left Sunday, and on April 27, an F5 hit the Birmingham metro, missing our house by about 4-5 miles, and my old job by a mile or two.
I love that there's lots of positive cloud-to-ground lightning that's what you see just be careful that you don't hear a zap sound or buzzing because those positive lightning strikes can hit anything at any given time unlike regular conventional lightning positive strikes are the worst because you never know when they're going to hit you the only way you'll know is if your hair stands up on end then it's time to head inside quickly this only happens when tornado activity occurs
That is exactly how it looked over our trailer one day. The tornado was brewing, going round and round as if it was in a big iron boiling pot. It went on over and hit in a trailer park about 5 miles or so away.
I don't know anyone who saw a funnel cloud, even people who realized after the fact they were pointing their cameras directly at the tornado. Wide, rain-wrapped and amorphous it was not easy to see. Even at the airport people looking directly at it couldn't see anything but destruction occurring.
Wayne Brasler That’s also what happened with the Tri-State Tornado in 1925, the Waco, Texas Tornado in 1953, the Plainfield Tornado in 1990, & the Joplin Tornado in 2011.
Rain wrapped twisters are the absolute worst. The worst case scenario possible would be a rain wrapped twister, obscured by hail, in a huge metropolitan area such as Dallas, Houston, Oklahoma City, you name it, at about 1 or 2 am, moving in an anti-cyclonic pattern with speeds clocking in at over 318 mph. The worst part about that is that people would have warning, but hardly anyone would be awake enough to realize the situation, let alone be watching tv. There's not even news on at 2 am, I don't think. Thousands, or even millions or billions in damages... Countless lives lost... Destruction everywhere. It would be devastating. I pray that this never happens...
I've only seen one brief image of the Good Friday Tornado and it was a YT image showing about a 1/4 mile stove pipe tornado. I'm still amazed their were no deaths with it.
This for me is one of the best tornado/storm approach videos yet on RUclips. I love the build up and atmosphere. Nice house/houses too and you are very calm and informative. Hope it passed without too much incident? Greetings from the UK by the way, we don't get impressive storms like these but I lived in South Carolina for a few years as a kid and had a few close calls. Amazing
@Mrs. Phyllis Stephens This was the same system that hit Lambert Intl Airport that day. If you perform a search with St. Louis Tornado at Lambert Airport, you'll come across some pretty major footage, and yes it was a tornado that did lots of damage to the airport and sent people running to get away from broken windows and very strong airplane fuel fumes.
Spoonfed Truth Wow. Check your facts. Green skies in no way indicate a certainty of a tornado. news.wisc.edu/curiosities-why-does-the-sky-turn-green-before-a-tornado-2/ Or: www.scientificamerican.com/article/fact-or-fiction-if-sky-is-green-run-for-cover-tornado-is-coming/
Green skies are just a common notable appearance before a tornado. Usually the coloring of clouds before a tornado or an incredibly terrible storm are abnormal, like a greenish yellow or very dark, almost blackish grey. Greenage is often associated with tornadoes but that's not always the case, as stated before.
Tornadoes can also make the sky appear yellow before hand. Green skies usually indicate a heavy amount of hail in the supercell, however, not always a tornado, just more likely than not, like greater than 50%, or as The Weather Channel may call it, a Tor-Con of 6 or better.
That calm is what’s Erie. Just a little rain and thunder. Then all hell breaks loose. Hopefully everyone was safe and no one got hurt. No sirens when there should be.
Wow! Now that was a scary storm. I can't get over that lightning and thunder. It's frightening when those bolts are so big and so close that it sounds like small explosions. That was some incredible footage... very intense. Thank you for sharing it with all of us.
This was Good Friday. I was on a conference call and had to get off so I could open the front door and ring the doorbell, causing the cats to run to the basement, then we stood at the basement window and watched this storm as it hit Lambert Airport. We were a few miles south in Clayton.
I have been through three tornados myself...even had one go over my house skip down two more houses and hit that one, skipped to the end of the block and took the roof off a house down there...didn't touch a thing inside of it just the roof...freaked me out big time...
Great vid of that storm. Glad your neighborhood was spared. Loved all the lighting and thunder. I grew up in Michigan and would love to watch the thunderstorms come through. Moved to Oregon and we just do not have thunderstorms like that here. Miss them.
Your tornado was behind white house number two in the far distance it showed it very clearly. Between the two white houses of the video. The two that sit close to each other. Followed by rain ban
Gotta love Steve Templeton from KMOV on the TV in the background. He's an excellent Meteorologist in St. Louis, and we're lucky to have him. Thanks for the upload, and I hope you didn't suffer any damage.
HOW ARE YOU SO CALM??!! 😲 I would have been calling out: “Auntie Em!! Auntie Em!!!”🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪 The tornado we had last year was just like yours! We had very bright sunlight. It was really weird!!
Yikes!! 😬😬. ☁️ to ground ⚡ at 3:46!!! Don't 🤬 with it!! And throughout the whole video one would forget that the sun stayed out for almost the entire duration of the video off in the opposite direction cause your so concentrated with the dangerous, impending weather right there in front of you. Looks like a very nice gated community that your living in. All the 🏠's and properties look very well maintained! 👍👍
Don't know if anyone seen it but there is a shadow person at 2.22 to about 2.27 in the video of the guy saying wow..it is toward the ground by a bush..
My daughter and I were getting massages when that was hitting down the road at the airport! Weirdest storm we seen! Calm on one side absolutely quiet and other side poured rain! Told her we’re out!! Sped home to basement!! Terrified!
K. Ran. You and me both. Been obsessed since I was 8. Bucket list item. Need to see one in person. Hopefully one that only damages a vacant grassland, mind you...
That looked like an extremely dangerous situation! There was definitely a wall cloud. Then the wall cloud, and possible tornado, quickly became rain wrapped. A violent rain wrapped tornado is probably the most dangerous of all tornadoes, because no one can see the tornado until it’s too late.
I DON'T LIKE IT WHEN IT THUNDERS BECAUSE THUNDER CAN CAUSE A BIG POWEROUT AND CAN CAUSE HAIL AND HAIL CAN CAUSE A LOT OF DAMAGE.. NOT JUST ANY DAMAGE BROKEN WINDOWS CARS TREES INTO HOUSES..
he must have been on the northern edge of a storm that was moving east with close lightning going on right behind him.the storm was nicely building, the funnel was rain wrapped he was looking right at it! he was facing south maybe southeast?
Where did this take place? I have never seen such black clouds! Or, at least, rarely seen such black clouds. We were hit with tornado systems here in Ottawa, Canada, in September, 2018. There was an awful lot of damage. Rare for us up here. My building did not suffer damage. We were not injured; only inconvenienced, as we were without power for 52 hours.
Omg I remember this storm!, i was in florissant during this. Those lightning strikes were absolutely horrible. The bank building by 270 got its roof torn off. My roof got shredded and a lightning strike struck the air conditioning unit. The storm also knocked a tree onto the powerline in the back yard

So, tornados and green skies (caused by dense hail cores) have connections but are not directly related to each other.
Thanks for the science lesson
Hail shafts reflect as a white color in a storm.
Green color is usually thought to be from extremely high moisture content in the storm. You can often see a green sky without large hail or tornado.
It turns green because the clouds are so electrified that they emit a green glow discharge. That's why supercells are so electrical.
Everyone here is wrong. Hail reflects blue spectrum. Tornadoes usually happen in the afternoon or evening. Yellow light mixes with blue and makes green.
I had a green storm once.
No hail. Green doesen't mean hail.. it's the rain and the sun.
Those "really weird storms where it's really bright behind us." Yeah-that's a 'nado. Gorgeous footage.
Been in one and it's absolutely beautiful. It's like you're looking at two different worlds😮
If I saw that cloud, I'd be grabbing my pets and hiding in the basement. You are brave and I understand that those clouds are amazing to watch😊
Those thunder claps with crackling echos is superbly eerie.
Definitely a bunch of positively charge bolts, usually a sign of a really severe storm/tornado.
wally man not always. There can be non severe storms with positive strikes. I have seen that before
BORING!!!
@@donnahicks617 How can severe weather be boring to you?
i dont know why im obsessed with nasty storms
Same, when you're watching it on the video it looks so cool and all, but when you see it in person you're like "nope...nope....nope!"
Ikr
Faheem 700HP acctually I like it in person 😂😂
Me either there's something about them though
I also love these storms. I'm from Alberta Canada,but we don't have these types of storms to marvel @. Thank God, I'd shit my pants if I ever saw one.
Rain wrapped tornados are the worst next to one hitting at night
Maddawwg45 I know something even worse than both rain wrapped & night tornadoes... a nighttime heavily rain wrapped tornado. That happened with the Lubbock, Texas Tornado in 1970.
wildfires at night when your asleep is even worse
Being anal probed by aliens at night is worse.
Omg ones at night r the worst bc u don't no where it's at and it's scary itself!
Maddawwg45 there the most dangerous

I think all that neon green grass is even more impressive
I think it's so freaky how all the homes are lit up brightly by the sun and behind them it looks like Armageddon.
That's what you call a "rain wrapped" tornado.
I am obsessed with nasty ass severe thunderstorms with tornados, however I am terrified of them as well, I have to drink through them.
OMG I COULD SEE THE TORNADO AND THAT TORNADO IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST ONES I'VE EVER SEEN IN 11 YEARS OF LIFE
He was not fazed by how close the lighting strikes were to him 😂😂
I love that there's lots of positive cloud-to-ground lightning that's what you see just be careful that you don't hear a zap sound or buzzing because those positive lightning strikes can hit anything at any given time unlike regular conventional lightning positive strikes are the worst because you never know when they're going to hit you the only way you'll know is if your hair stands up on end then it's time to head inside quickly this only happens when tornado activity occurs

Toby Keith is in my head now... Did you remember to grab a beer and a lawnchair!?
The thunder is not a rolling noise but a sudden boom that occurs frequently. Sounds like a bomb going off each time

The thunder sounds pretty bad
No it doesn't
Here in Maryland, a green sky usually means a chemical fire in Baltimore.
Great footage. This was just a few weeks before the Joplin tornado.
I've been waiting ten years to say this. Dope video bro

Me and my dad every time there’s a storm we just stand there and watch and whenever there was lightning or thunder we’d rate it for some reason
Whenever the sky turns green you know it's about to go down. Green sky means tornado for certain. Thanks for the video

Not fair to attack him. If he said it's for certain - then that's that. SPC and SWS may as well give up research because this nails it.

That thunder is one of the most ominous things I’ve ever heard
"yeah there it is...." WOW! U sir said this so calmly! I've seen the painter Bob Ross with more enthusiasm about a bush! Thank u for the video tho

Bob Ross: Happy Trees... There! 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
James Dozier Lol
Old Bob 😂 was too calm...
Ole Bob was pretty enthusiastic about that Bush! Sorry, had to!
Mo, that is the most chilled-out response to seeing a tornado ever.
Whats scary is somewhat around the time they talk about a tornado when he looks over to the right you can see a clear power flash.
6:11 thunder and then "WOO"
DementedTigerr AJ I HEARD THAT TOO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 "WOO!!!!"
I cheer during storms too its a free firework display
The Eternal Induction so who cares
I've heard these when I was little.
LMAO ALL U HEAR IS A SUDDEN WOO FROM ANOTHER PERSON
Very happy to be subscriber 400 =)
At 3:46 he lined up that lightning strike right down the middle he couldn’t have timed that more perfectly
That calm is what’s Erie. Just a little rain and thunder. Then all hell breaks loose. Hopefully everyone was safe and no one got hurt. No sirens when there should be.
Thank you for not screaming and freaking out .
WOW...You can hear the power flashes as it's hitting things. I've never heard them in a video. Awesome video! I would've not been so calm. 😱

Rain wrapped tornado
I have seen a tornado once in Houston back in November 1992, it was an F-2 as it hit Hermann Park.
That looked like an extremely dangerous situation! There was definitely a wall cloud. Then the wall cloud, and possible tornado, quickly became rain wrapped. A violent rain wrapped tornado is probably the most dangerous of all tornadoes, because no one can see the tornado until it’s too late.
Apart the tornado what wonderful houses there!!! 😍😍
That is very spooky!!!! My nerves would have been shot.
Nicole Gilstrap
Mine too its too slow a build up. Come fast I say, is better.
Beautiful footage man. It's too bad the tornado was wrapped up in rain, but all those lightning strokes were gorgeous.
If I had seen that, I would have been a wreck! Glad you guys are safe.
Missourians like to watch storms, we get them all the time.
+Kate Smith - That's not a Missouri reaction, that's a Midwestern reaction in general
SchwiftedBear 👽 and friends benny and friends benny is going to be great time when they have fun with wishhad some godbless in the country base mint
Bruh this is the scariest storm I’ve ever seen.. those clouds look scary
I'm glad those beautiful houses were spared THIS time! Better upgrade your insurance because the weather is going crazy all over the country.
We've had plenty of scenarios like this one that were tornado watches which didn't develop into tornado warnings thank God!
That is some intense lightning and thunder. Wow!
Lots of big bolts of lightning ⛈
1:42 you can see a funnel forming
These homes are beautiful.
One orbit of the Moon later... Joplin.

I DON'T LIKE IT WHEN IT THUNDERS BECAUSE
THUNDER CAN CAUSE A BIG POWEROUT AND CAN CAUSE HAIL AND HAIL CAN CAUSE A LOT OF DAMAGE..
NOT JUST ANY DAMAGE BROKEN WINDOWS CARS
TREES INTO HOUSES..
Then it needs flex tape
he must have been on the northern edge of a storm that was moving east with close lightning going on right behind him.the storm was nicely building, the funnel was rain wrapped he was looking right at it! he was facing south maybe southeast?
Yeah , it looks like a hook echo on the TV screen indicative of tornadic activity. If I'm reading that right.
Different colours of the Clous: violett, blue, green. It looks really strange 😳
Where did this take place? I have never seen such black clouds! Or, at least, rarely seen such black clouds.
We were hit with tornado systems here in Ottawa, Canada, in September, 2018. There was an awful lot of damage. Rare for us up here. My building did not suffer damage. We were not injured; only inconvenienced, as we were without power for 52 hours.
There's gotta be other states where you dont have to worry about tornado or hurricanes destroying your shit every year.
My state. But if there's lightning we are probably going to get wildfires.
Omg I remember this storm!, i was in florissant during this. Those lightning strikes were absolutely horrible. The bank building by 270 got its roof torn off.
