It doesn't, assuming equal wind conditions, although as the air temperature falls hence density rises slightly, it will travel very slightly more quickly.
The impression is from the normal sounds of the day reducing considerably at night, so they do not mask fainter sounds from more distant sources.
What else can I help you with?
Will sound travel in water?
Yes, sound can travel in water, but it travels faster and farther in water compared to air because water is denser and transmits sound more efficiently. Sound travels around four times faster in water than in air.
You are able to hear sounds from farther away on a cool night because sound waves are refracted toward warmer air near the ground?
Yes, on a cool night, the ground cools down faster than the air above it, creating a temperature gradient that causes sound waves to refract towards the ground instead of dispersing. This phenomenon allows sounds to travel farther distances and be heard more clearly at a distance.
Why is sound louder at night than during the day?
Sound can be louder at night than during the day due to a phenomenon called atmospheric ducting. This occurs when the air near the ground is cooler than the air above it, causing sound waves to bend and travel further distances, making them seem louder.
Would a barking dog produce sound wave that travel faster during day or at night?
The speed of sound waves is dependent on the temperature of the medium they are traveling through. During the day, the temperature is typically warmer, which results in faster sound wave propagation compared to at night when temperatures are cooler. Therefore, a barking dog would produce sound waves that travel faster during the day than at night.
Why do sound waves travel faster through iron than air?
Sound waves travel faster through iron than air because iron is a denser medium with particles that are closer together. This allows the sound waves to propagate more quickly through the material compared to air, which has less dense particles that are farther apart, creating more resistance and slowing down the speed of sound.
Do sound waves travel farther in liquid than in gas?
Yes.

Yes, sound can travel in water, but it travels faster and farther in water compared to air because water is denser and transmits sound more efficiently. Sound travels around four times faster in water than in air.

Can a helicopter travel farther than airplane?
Most airplanes can travel further than helicopters.
Why does sound travel more slowly through air than through a solid?
Air molecules are much, much farther away from each other in air than they are in water.
Can airplanes travel faster than sound?
NO they can not travel faster than sound in thunder and lightning
Why airplane sound is not heard during night?
I really don't get this question. I have been on thousands of night flights, and I have been through hundreds of airports, and I could always hear the engines, day or night. And, because your normal daylight traffic sounds are less, sound carries better at night, so you can hear the sounds of the aircraft farther at night, even farther than you can hear in the daytime. Higher frequencies definitely travel better at night, too. Unless ..., you were asleep, and didn't hear them? I am stumped.One possibility: There are fewer flights between midnight and 6 am: major airline traffic at most airports starts at about 7 o'clock in the morning. So, perhaps you don't hear so much aircraft sound, because they schedule fewer flights at night?

Does a medium travel faster in a solid?
yes, sound travels fastest in solids. If we are talking about sound, then it does travel faster in solids. This is because in solids the particles are more compact and are able to pass on the sound waves more quickly than water media or gas media would since their particles are spaced farther apart.
Does sound travel in a liquid?
Yes sound can travel in liquid, its speed is lesser than that in solid and more than that of gas.
