The SL2 turns grey skies blue?

Processed in Lightroom, Landscape or Color profiles, I find that boring grey skies are apt to carry a blue tinge (that becomes stronger as you approach blue hour).

It certainly makes the pics look more lively, but it’s not what I remember seeing. If I set the sky to be grey using the temperature setting, the rest of the picture looks too warm.

Have others noticed such quirks?  Is there a solution (that doesn’t involve repainting the scene)?

Have you tried setting white balance with a grey card?

Make your own camera color profile, for instance using a ColorChecker Passport.

It might be worth it to reset the default profiles. They can become corrupted.

does this mean that others are getting grey skies from grey-looking clouds?
