I assume you mean during the day...

Partly cloudy refers to the how much of the sky is covered by clouds I think so they 
probably only use it during the day when you can actually see it.

I believe Environment Canada (used for Canadian cities) always uses clear (which is 
similar to fair and when it is applicable) at night and sunny (when it is applicable) 
during the day but it's quite possible the US NWS uses fair during the day...

Have a nice day!
