16807/16384, the cloudy comma, is a 7-limit medium comma. It is the amount by which five 8/7s fall short of one octave and exceeds 128/125 by the rainy comma. For equal divisions N up to 65, the comma is tempered out if and only if 5 divides N. Examples are 5edo, 10edo, 15edo, 50edo, 55edo and 65edo.
Temperaments
Tempering out the cloudy comma splits the octave into 5 equal parts and maps the harmonic 7 to 4\5. It leads to a number of regular temperaments in the cloudy clan.
Cloudy rank-3 temperament can be described as the 10&15&50 temperament, which tempers out 385/384 and 3087/3025 in the 11-limit; 105/104, 144/143, and 4459/4400 in the 13-limit.
