Does light reflect off of clouds?
Of course. The reason clouds appear white is that the vapor droplets in them are reflecting the full range of spectral emissions, which appears as white light. The sky is blue because smaller Oxygen and Nitrogen atoms selectively scatter blue light. When the weather is "fair" the white clouds will be distinct against the blue sky, but as there is more moisture in the air, there will be more white light reflected and the sky will "wash out."
