On Cloud Nine

What it means

Blissfully happy, to the point of being no practical use to anyone.

Where it comes from

The story about a weather service numbering cloud types is repeated everywhere and does not hold up. Earlier versions said cloud seven and cloud eight, which suggests the number was never the point.

The puzzle it came from

On Cloud Nine was the answer to the Phrasicle of May 16, 2025. The clue read On ____ ____, and the words came out of a grid where every neighbouring pair makes a two-word phrase.
