What you implied in your post was that this was something that happened regularly; it was not. Furthermore, read the name of the chapter of the Hadith you cited, the goal of citing this Hadith is to denote prayer times.
By the way, don't be surprised at the existence of green in Arabia. There is an authentic Hadith (in Muslim's collection) that states that the Hour shall not come until Arabia returns into being rivers and meadows.
Lastly, the Companions of the Prophet Mohammad (Peace be upon him) are called that, not "pals".
