jquery change background color user scroll

Question

Is it possible with jquery that when a user scrolls down the page that the background animate from 50% white to 90% white or someting?

So first it is the color rgba(255,255,255,.5) and when a user scroll 210px below the color become rgba(255,255,255,.9).

Updated, more generic version:

var tStart = 100 // Start transition 100px from top
  , tEnd = 500   // End at 500px
  , cStart = [250, 195, 56]  // Gold
  , cEnd = [179, 217, 112]   // Lime
  , cDiff = [cEnd[0] - cStart[0], cEnd[1] - cStart[1], cEnd[2] - cStart[2]];

$(document).ready(function(){
    $(document).scroll(function() {
        var p = ($(this).scrollTop() - tStart) / (tEnd - tStart); // % of transition
        p = Math.min(1, Math.max(0, p)); // Clamp to [0, 1]
        var cBg = [Math.round(cStart[0] + cDiff[0] * p), Math.round(cStart[1] + cDiff[1] * p), Math.round(cStart[2] + cDiff[2] * p)];
        $("body").css('background-color', 'rgb(' + cBg.join(',') +')');
    });
});

In action

If you want a smooth, gradiated change when scrolling you should try

$(document).ready(function(){
    $(document).scroll(function() {
        var alpha = Math.min(0.5 + 0.4 * $(this).scrollTop() / 210, 0.9);
        var channel = Math.round(alpha * 255);
        $("body").css('background-color', 'rgb(' + channel + ',' + channel + ',' + channel + ')');
    });
});

here you go (this will change the page color to blue when you scroll more than 210px, and will revert back to red if you go back up):

$(document).ready(function(){       
            var scroll_pos = 0;
            $(document).scroll(function() { 
                scroll_pos = $(this).scrollTop();
                if(scroll_pos > 210) {
                    $("body").css('background-color', 'blue');
                } else {
                    $("body").css('background-color', 'red');
                }
            });
        });

For smooth transition effect you should check scroll position, accordingly you can change bg-color. use .animate function of jquery.
