The word “overcast” can be described in several ways:

Weather:

• Overcast: When there is a lot of cloud cover, meaning the sky is completely covered with low-hanging clouds, often accompanied by drizzle or rain.
• Cloudy: Similar to overcast, but the clouds are not necessarily low-hanging, and may be higher in the sky.
• Rain-soaked: When there is a lot of rain falling, regardless of the cloud cover.

Other meanings:

• Overcast: Can also describe a situation that is lacking in sunshine and is gloomy or depressing.
• Overcast: Can also describe a situation that is complicated or difficult to understand.

So, the meaning of “overcast” depends on the context:

• If you’re talking about the weather: Overcast means there is a lot of cloud cover and possibly rain.
• If you’re talking about a situation: Overcast means the situation is gloomy or depressing, or it’s difficult to understand.
