Because it has been many years since I was able to
regularly see these large storms (and it was only a curiosity
to me then), I'll try to not let my imagination fill in details.
Yes, I agree the green is more of a cast to the sky not associated
with an individual cloud. But on the other hand, I also remember
it being well defined in the sky, framed by very dark cloud regions.
I don't think it is due to backscatter as by this time it is usually
quite dark because the sun is obscured by the heavy cloud. And I
wouldn't call most of this land very green anyway. I've
never seen this in the east (opposite the sun)
I think more reliable observations by a more experienced person
is need to give some clues. I'm going to give the weather bureau
in Brisbane a call and see what they say
