How do you say "Thursday will be cloudy" in Chinese

Question

Is it just "星期四会阴天"?

Also if you say "Thursday will be cloudy" it translates to "星期四有风”, so do you also say "星期四会有热”？

热 is not usually used as a noun in daily speech. So not "有热". — fefe, Oct 13, 2017 at 13:31

"thursday will be cloudy" means "星期四（是）阴天" or "星期四（是）多云".

有风 means 'windy', not 'cloudy'.

We usually say "星期四（天气）（会）很热”, "星期四有风”, "星期四(是)晴天”， "星期四有雨”， "星期四（可能）（会）下雨” and etc.

Why can't 会 be used in 星期四阴天? Because it should be considered as a noun?

星期四会是阴天? sounds better, because (as you said) it's a noun. In 星期四会阴天?， you would use 阴天 as a verb(it's ok for understanding, but a bit unnatural I think).
