forecasts "White Cloud"

I am really getting excited about the day when the forecast "Green
Cloud".

But I am reminded of a young glider pilot many years ago. Soaring
conditions were excellent and this lad had his first decent flight.

"You had a good flight. How high was cloud base?"
"Don't know how high the clouds were, but the blue bits looked very
high indeed"

The alternative title for the image has become the caption, but I guess
you had spotted that.

I've noticed on the CEEFAX 5 day forecasts the increased use of
'White Cloud', 'Dark Cloud' and 'Black Cloud' recently. Strangely, no
mention of grey, orange, pink, red, or indeed green cloud - yet.
