We report cloud excellency. We see many clouds, and every cloud is a good cloud, but there comes a time in your life when you see a cloud, and you think: 

"Oh, there's a really good cloud. I love that cloud. I want to take pictures of it and show it to my friends and family."

We report that the sky is tearing apart - nothing a little duct tape cannot fix, though, right?

We report, after a long, hot day, humidity settling in. Clouds are slowly becoming more and more opaque, the air feels heavier and smells like earth.
