EN: to become cloudy; to cause clouds to form
This is what the sky does right before you get a "sign" to cancel your beach trip. One moment it's sunny, the next, the sky starts to **magpaulap**, and you know your plans (and your freshly washed clothes) are in danger. It's nature's way of saying, "Maybe just stay home and watch Netflix."
From `magpa-` (causative prefix) + `ulap` (cloud).
ROOT MEANING: cloud
Primarily used in a meteorological sense to describe the weather becoming overcast.
