Interesting... the hottest part of the day in what I've experienced, in terms of thermal accumulation, is around 1-3pm. But I've usually lived on the coast or within 100km of it; the sea works as a huge normaliser for intraday temperature. When several thousand kilometers inland for the first time, the hot days and cold nights were stark, despite the average temperature being about the same. Do you live significantly away from a very large body of water?
