Rainforests have high humidity and usually are covered with clouds. These two factors act as a blanket and help hold in daytime heating so the rainforest does not cool much at night. Deserts, on the other hand, have few clouds and usually have a very low humidity. Once the sun sets, the heat of the day begins to radiate quickly back into space,
