I'd say “sky” is a relative concept and depends on where you are. If I was on the mountainside and had clouds below me, I still wouldn't say I'm in the sky. (But I would if I was on a plane, so it's not as simple as “anything that's above me”.)

And I'm on the ground right now. There doesn't seem to be any clouds above me, but if there were, they'd be in the sky, and the sky would have white splotches.
