Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The minimum daily temperature typically occurs just before sunrise, which corresponds to the coldest part of the night. As the sun rises and starts to warm the atmosphere, temperatures begin to rise. Midnight and 3:00 am are typically colder than sunrise, but they do not represent the minimum daily temperature for a given day. Sunset is usually much warmer than the minimum daily temperature as the sun has been warming the atmosphere throughout the day.
