Why do the first showers of rain make the environment even hotter rather than cooling it?

Beacause of humidity. High humidity makes people feel hotter outside in the summer because it reduces the effectiveness of sweating to cool the body by preventing the evaporation of perspiration from the skin.

Why do black cars get hotter in the sun?
Cars that appear black look that way because they are absorbing the light falling on them rather than reflecting it. Since they are absorbing more light energy than lighter colored cars, they get hotter.
What does 'Isolated showers' mean?

How do changes in the environment help individuals with certain alleles?
Assume a rather warm environment and a very hairy organisms that is under selection pressure in that environment. A sudden cooling would give this organism an advantage over the majority morphological type, hairless. This is a simplified example because populations evolve and environments change slowly, usually, so progeny over many generation would benefit from having alleles that were not quite selected against, but were not of great frequency in the population.
