Answer:
The correct answer would be "higher as compared to the clearer night".
On cloudy nights, most of the infrared radiations or heat energy radiated from the surface of the earth are absorbed or trapped by clouds and are re-emitted from the clouds due to which the temperature of the air becomes higher.
In contrast, on clear nights due to the absence of clouds, most of the radiations escape into space due to which the temperature of the air is comparatively cooler or lower.
