cloud cover

Why is "Cloud Cover" a factor in decision to fly?

I use UAV Forecast and see cloud cover as a factor, independent of GPS Satellites locked. I'm wondering what the problem is regarding CC? If I have 15-18 satellites locked but 90-95% cc, why is that a problem? Is it just VLOS or is there something more regarding control of the drone?
