One of the important roles played by the cloudiness in our daily life is decreasing the range of diurnal variation of temperature.That means, the differance between the maximum temperature and minimum temperature in a day becomes small by the presence of clouds.They tend to smooth out the diurnal variation of temperature by keeping the temperature low by day and comparatively high at night.They do it in the following way.
Generally clouds are good reflectors of solar radiation,only a small amount being absorbed.So when the sky is cloudy,major part of the incoming solar radiation is obstructed from reaching the ground due to reflection and the small amount of radiation absorbed by the cloud is used for raising the temperature of the cloud only.In case the temperature of the ground is less than the cloud ,the cloud will emit radiation in terms of long waves which will again be reflected by the earth back to the cloud keeping the heat confined in between the cloud and the earth. Thus the diurnal variation of temperature is kept minimum.
Apart from this, they produce rain which is the major source of ground water and river water essential for all living beings in the world.

Clouds are more of a 'symptom' of weather, rather than a cause.

They block the sunlight so that the earth doesnt over heat.
