Best Answer

The color of a cloud depends on how much light is able to move freely through the water droplets. A "green" cloud (generally a cumulonimbus cloud ) can also be described as "dark and angry" and is often associated with severe weather. They can potentially produce heavy rain, frequent lightening strikes, hail and tornadoes. A lighter colored cloud can produce hail, but when it is "green" the weather service generally expects the possibility of hail.
