As much as I hate to admit it I know what they say is true: cooler nights create better conditions for stargazing.

Why is that? According to The Weather Channel,

Winter’s colder night skies hold less hazy moisture than warm summer skies. This means that there are generally fewer night clouds in winter, leaving the skies crisp and clear.
