Why is it unusual for it to snow at the beach?

It really depends on where the beach is. In colder climates it snows at the beach all the time. It may not snow at some beaches yet snow a little inland because the temperature of the water could be warmer. This makes the air warmer in that area and causes it to rain instead. I live by water and the temperature is almost always a few degrees warmer than just a few miles inland.

Why is a cloudy day warmer then a sunny winter day?

A cloudy winter day is warmer than a sunny winter day because the clouds reflect the heat radiating from the earths surface and traps them in the atmosphere. On a sunny (cloudless day) the heat radiates out into space and is lost. on cloudy day the sun rays can't reach the earth surface for evaporation of water which causes cooling, moerover atmosphere is saturated of vapours so evaporation is very less from earth surface as compare to that of sunny day
