Discussion
Which conditions maximise the urban heat island?
Answer: B
The island arises because the countryside cools strongly while the city does not, and rural cooling requires clear calm conditions, so the difference is greatest then. Wind and cloud suppress the rural cooling and therefore the contrast. Daytime absorption contributes to the heat stored but the effect itself is a nocturnal phenomenon.
