Cloud cover is usually given as a percentage, there is no unit of measure.
An Okta is a measurement unit used to describe cloud cover over a defined area. In aviation 10% cloud cover is considered one peg up from clear to a few clouds, mainly scattered.
One Okta = One eighth of the sky covered by cloud.
Meteorologists measure the amount of cloud cover in the sky using a unit of measurement called an "okta." Basically, one okta is one eighth of the sky that is covered in cloud. The severity of cloud cover ranges from zero oktas to eight, with zero being a completely clear sky and eight oktas being complete cloud cover. It can be fun to observe how the cloud cover will differ from day to day and even from hour to hour. What do you think is responsible for these changes
The five terms used to describe cloudiness are clear (0-10% cloud cover), partly cloudy (11-50% cloud cover), mostly cloudy (51-90% cloud cover), cloudy (91-100% cloud cover), and overcast (complete cloud cover).

Cloud cover is a noun. "Expect lots of cloud cover today."
A scanning wavelength that can penetrate cloud cover is called "cloud-penetrating wavelength." This wavelength allows sensors to collect data by passing through clouds and reaching the Earth's surface, providing valuable information despite the presence of cloud cover.

The air in a cool region underneath cloud cover will have higher humidity compared to a region with no cloud cover. Clouds can trap moisture and prevent it from evaporating, leading to higher humidity levels beneath them.
Cloud cover does not have a temperature. It affects the rate of heating or cooling.
