Cloudy days are great. There is very little problem with exposure because there is a minimized dynamic range. Sharpness can be a problem because lighting may be very flat. White balance should not be a problem different than any other time - partly because color may be a bit muted. That will also hold for saturation in general.

Those of us in Pittsburgh shoot gray days all the time. Except that you do not get blue skies, gray can be great. You may, therefore, want to minimize the sky by shooting a bit more down - an old landscape trick.

You've gotten great advice from others, and the only thing I can add to it is that on drab, overcast days, I will typically limit how much sky I allow in my composition, if possible.

Never know what the fog will do.
Often beautiful diffused light.
Bring warm clothes. Beware of going out in shorts when sunny, it changes fast.
