Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-004458

A period of daylight hours during which the sky is predominantly covered by clouds, limiting direct sunlight. This condition results in lower surface temperatures and reduced solar radiation reaching the ground. A cloudy day is typically recorded when the average cloud cover exceeds 70-80% for the daylight period.
