Oh no worries haha, I was thrown off by the bit of colour you added
So I'm assuming you're going for a more dramatic overcast weather going by your wip?
I'm not much of a landscape enthusiast, but I recommend checking out Thomas Moran's work for that kind of thing (example: http://i.imgur.com/h4nH0Db.jpg), or to switch up the usual overcast colour palette - check out Jean Charles Cazin (example 1: http://i.imgur.com/hKqDAQe.jpg example 2 (more subtle values, but still effective): http://i.imgur.com/6vjnw2H.jpg)
No need to overthink overcast skies, just remember your simple 1-4 values, making sure everything reads well.
A good way to check if your values read well would be to make a black & white layer as well as a posterise layer
Keep rockingg ittttt!
