The Color of Bad

I don't know what color you want to call this (I've never seen a sky this color before) but it's the color of bad.  It was 72ºF (22ºC) when I woke up just before 5AM.  That's incredibly warm even for North Alabama.  Sure enough, the thunderstorms started just after sunrise. It wasn't too bad here but I understand Kentucky had a bunch of tornadoes from the same storm system. 

I had cranked the ISO up to 2,000 earlier, just to get the clouds to stop blurring so much   As you can see from the attached data.  I'd brought it back down to ISO 1,000 by this point, 22 minutes before sunrise. Yes, this is with the white balance on "Daylight".
