How much temp difference can happen in 15 km ( smilar elevation)?

Airport Station station gets about 8-9-10°C colder low than the The City at Clear Night, which is like 15 km distance.

I googled the question writting the distance, I can't have answer

That’s due to basic physics and radiating bodies, not so much weather. A place I used to live Lossiemouth in North of Scotland on the coast could be sunny and wearing t shirts (but still a bit cold) and Dallas could have snow and was about 10 miles away.

Yes..

Isn't Dallas in USA?

Quite a lot. Not sure how much exactly but definetely a couple degrees.

Cities stay way warmer during the night than for example fields or forests.

Anything with concrete heats up really fast when the sun shines, espacially airports where there is no shadow.

But unlike cities airports loose their heat at night rapidly, while the buildings in the city keep the heat energy stored for long time.

Suppose earth is flat and uniform throughout. Then at same elevation there is zero degree difference in temperature no matter 1 km distance or 100 km distance or 1000 km. Whatever.
