Default cloud streets

Here I am in SW France with a splendid view towards the east, perfect
for cloud spotting. Lots of very beautiful cumulonimbus rising over the
Auvergne due east and the Limousin (hi Colin!) to the north-east in the
last few days. And also cloud streets. Given that the wind has been
quite feeble here and it's often been difficult to judge which way the
clouds are actually moving, can one tell from the direction of the line
of clouds? It seems to be straight along the line of battle, so to
speak, but is this a reliable rule of thumb?
