Answer:
This is because buildings, sidewalks, and parking lots block heat coming from the ground from rising into the cold night sky. Because the heat is trapped on lower levels, the temperature is warmer. Urban heat islands can have worse air and water quality than their rural neighbors.

Answer:
The dense vegetation of the rural area is aerodynamically rougher than the city, which increases the efficiency of convection, letting more heat move from the land into the atmosphere. ... At night, though, no matter the climate, the release of heat stored during the day drives the heat island effect.
