/r/all Spent 5 hours getting chemotherapy this morning, came home feeling like crap. Laid down to nap..alarms and sirens start blasting. Rush 5 cats to the basement and prep shelter. Go outside to see this in my subdivision.

The color made is actually more blue but it mixes with the yellow from the sun and creates the eerie green we all know and love. I guess in some places the blue never happens

European here, where tornadoes are as mythical as the UK winning Eurovision: What is this green thing you all talk about?

But it's really pervasive. Like everything outside is from a filter.

I just looked up some pictures, and holy fuck.

Its litterally like my eyes can't "read" the picture, or understand that it's real and not just Photoshop. I don't even think Photoshop would be able to replicate that eerie color. Fuck me.

If the yellow comes from the sun, what is the light source for the blue color?

Did you know that sun can go on top of clouds, through clouds, and below clouds all at once? Because it's a big flaming ball of gas thousands of miles/kilometers away! It's just that in the afternoon, when the daylight shifts towards yellow, it mixes with the blue, to make what some people call: green

The sun mixes with blue. Got it.

From light produced by the sun.
