Cloud 9

Yes another new catagory for my blog, just when you thought I was done. It is ever evolving. This catagory was inspired by something I came acorss in an article I read today, and thought it would be kind of neat. It is going to be dedicated to explaining the orgions of certain words or phrases that are common day today. And so to start the one that inspired me to start this catagory.

Many of us are probaly famillaer with the phrase Cloud 9, usually it is used to describe a great joy and happiness when someone is at the height of thier pleasure, it can also be used when someone is in love or falling in love, to say they are on Cloud 9, and it is often also associated with the heavens,but where did it come from?

In the 1800s English meterologist Luke Howard made a list of 10 cloud types. Number nine in the list was cumulonimbus which is the tallest of all types of clouds.
