    It could be tiny tiny bubbles in the water. Try taking the aerator off your faucet, and see if it's still cloudy. If it's not, then I'd say it's tiny bubbles.

    dmatos answer was right on target. The cloudy water was caused by air bubbles and the water cleared when the bubbles dissolved. Regards, Tom
