Someone should do poll as to what the Sun's color appears to be at around noon and midday.

It's 10am here in San Antonio and the sun is white. I noticed reflections off curved chrome and they are also white. I do not see yellow.

I suspect strongly that our color cones are too overloaded to get a handle on yellow until later in the day.

The BA makes a great point, as Eroica pointed out, that the yellow may be an illusion due to the surronding blue. It should also be noted that the sky (overall)is, likely, bluer when the sun is lower in the sky. This is because Mie scattering is much much less overhead which whitens the sky and the sky near the horizon is always whiter (of course, no mountains here). This may contribute to the pyschological effect the BA points out. The bluer the sky, the more yellowish the Sun. Also, the dimmer the sun the, likely, greater ability we have to see more blue sky nearer to it. (ignore my grammar)
