No particular sky color necessarily indicates tornado activity. It is commonly state that a greenish sky indicates a tornado, but it doesn't need to be gray for a tornado to occur, nor does a green sky necessarily mean there is a tornado, just a severe thunderstorm. In a tornadic storm the clouds may appear green, gray, yellow, or black.

The sky can turn green or brownish-gray during a tornado because of the way light interacts with the storm's clouds and precipitation. This color change may be due to the scattering of sunlight by the water droplets or debris within the storm, giving the sky a unique hue. It's a warning sign that severe weather is approaching.
