They find shelter and their coat helps a lot too.
It can't if it is "well" above freezing, but certainly if it is only a few degrees. The surface on a calm, cold night will radiate heat away from it rapidly. If there is little wind to mix the air, the coldest air near the surface will sink to the ground so that the temperature right at the surface where frost forms is at or just below the freezing point, while just above that where temperature is officially measured (2 meters) it can be several degrees warmer.
The surface of the earth holds heat, and the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere hold heat all through the night. If the earth had no atmosphere, then at night all the heat would escape out to space and the earth would be freezing.
Yes. A volcano can erupt at any time of day or night. This does not affect a volcano.
28 degrees... that's four degrees below freezing
Mainly from hypothermia, since the water was below freezing that night
Every year there are up to a thousand people sleeping at Mount Everest Base Camp, the temperture at night time is well below freezing.
At the beginning of October it is usually below freezing at night already and at the end of October it rarely is above freezing even in the afternoon
It is impossible unless the temperature drops below freezing at night.

In deserts, the temperature falls quite a lot, so it's a lot colder in the desert at night than it is in the day. It can fall below freezing.
Yes, deserts can have dramatic temperature drops at night; and may even drop below freezing at times.
It would drop below freezing during the night and then roast during the day
No as Sahara temperatures plummet to below freezing temperatures at some points in the year
It rarely gets below freezing at night in the hot deserts. However, it can quickly get quite chilly. Humidity and clouds are rare in the desert. Without clouds and humidity to hold heat, the warmth of the day rapidly radiates back into space once the sun goes down.
As long as it's below freezing, it will not melt at night. It may compact if it's a fresh and dry snowfall, but the amount of water in the snowpack will remain the same.
