Animated procedural volumetric clouds, as shown in Chapter 4.4.

Disclaimer: </br>For background and illumination this file is using the updated sky texture that is new since Blender 2.90, so if you are on an older version of Blender I recommend going to builder.blender.org .

@Varga Mihaly You cannot currently bake volumetric textures into vdb files with Blender.
