Answer

Bonjour yellamaraju,

Indeed in French you can use both sentences, "C'est nuageux" and "Il y a des nuages", to express "It's cloudy" in a general way. 
"Il y a des nuages " can also simply means "There are some clouds", like for example in the sentence "Il y a des nuages dans le ciel.".

Answer

Thanks Aurélie, It is amply clear. Thanks again

Answer

Can you say 'il fait nuageux' and if so is this more correct than 'c'est nuageux'?

Answer

Bonjour John !

Though it seems that some people use it, "il fait nuageux" isn't correct in French. You'll prefer "Le ciel est nuageux" or "Le temps est nuageux", or "C'est nuageux" :)

Bonne journée !
