Answer 1

Because most activities, whether animal or human, happen during daylight hours. Although there are many nocturnal creatures, most of them sleep at night. Wind also dies down more so, on average, at night. Daytime winds tend to blow with more force than nighttime winds. It is the result of the sun heating the earth’s surface causing air in the lower atmosphere to rise and mix with colder air, causing wind.
