Why can we see the moon during the day if the Earth is round?

Why is there no moon in the sky?

One of the more obvious reasons is weather conditions. If there are a lot of clouds in place, naturally, this will mean we won’t see the moon. However you may notice the light behind the clouds.

Why do clouds sometimes appear to be in front of You?

The upper cloud that goes “behind” the sun is transparent, so the sun shines through it. The middle and lower clouds are less transparent, so they partially block the sunlight enough to fall below the maximum brightness the camera can handle, hence they are visible, and seem to go in front (which is what all the clouds are really doing)
