On a clear night. Clouds will prevent the heat that the earth has collected during the day because of the sun, to evaporate at night.

Why is it more likely to be a frosty night in winter if the sky is clear?

When sky is clear the heat from earth will radiate to space and cool the night air faster. If cloudy the heat radiated is reflected back from clouds and it does not get so cool


Why is it more likely to be frosty on a clear night than on a cloudy night?

Since clouds are cool moist air, and cold air is heavier than warm air, the cloud cover holds down the warmth that accumulates during the day and keeps the ambient temperature slightly higher over night.


What is the difference in temperature on a clear night and cloudy night?

On a clear night, temperatures tend to drop more rapidly as heat escapes into the atmosphere. Cloudy nights act as a blanket, trapping some heat and causing temperatures to not drop as much as on clear nights. This can result in warmer temperatures on cloudy nights compared to clear nights.


Why is it clear night is more cooler than a cloudy night?

During a clear night, heat from the surface of the Earth radiates out into space since there are no clouds to trap it. Clouds act as a blanket, trapping heat near the surface and preventing it from escaping, which leads to warmer temperatures on cloudy nights compared to clear nights.

Why we feel warm in cloudy days?

The cloud cover acts like a blanket and traps any daylight warmth rising from the earth. A cloudless night sky allows all the warmth to escape into the atmosphere, resulting in a cold or frosty night.


Is it true that nighttime air temperatures on a cloudy night are lower than they would be on a clear night?

Typically, nighttime air temperatures on a cloudy night are higher than they would be on a clear night. This is because the surface of the earth radiates back heat toward the sky. If the sky is clear, much heat can be lost. However, if it is cloudy, it can keep some of that heat back in. Making the temperatures warmer.


How does a cloudy night and a clear night relate to the greenhouse effect?

Both water vapor and clouds are great greenhouse gasses, they block the loss of heat into outer space (at night).


Why are cloudy days cooler but cloudy nights warmer than the clear ones?

During a clear night, as heat absorbed by the earth during the day seeps out, the atmosphere allows the heat to pass through. During a cloudy night, however, the clouds catch and retain the heat in the atmosphere.Clouds trap heat being reflected from the earthThe heat radiation lost from the earth gets reflected by the clouds back to the earth, warming it. Whereas on a clear night it just escapes into space.


Why are cloudy night warmer than clear night?

because of the greenhouse effect
