Nebuly

Argent a fess nebuly gules

In heraldry and architecture,[1] a line which is drawn nebuly is made up of a series of bulbous protrusions, which are supposed to resemble clouds (Latin nebula: a mist, vapor, or cloud).(OED)

Its use in coats of arms can be seen in the cases of Jones and Munk, both, FLEETWOOD BOROUGH COUNCIL, England and HYDE BOROUGH COUNCIL, England
