Your garden hose acts the same as a solar collector. The sun shines on the hose which heats up and in turn heats the water inside it. You may see some houses that have solar hot water panels on their roof. They have pipes that run to and from them. The sun warms up the water that is passing through them and sends it to the hot water heater in the house. Since the water is already warm or even hot, the tank does not have to use as much energy to heat it. The darker your hose the more energy from the sun it will absorb making the water hotter.

Your water flow comes out of the engine through the upper hose, into the radiator. The lower hose is cooler because the radiator has done its job; it cooled the water!
Cold water runs but not hot water in washing machine how can hot water hose be unclogged?
It is probably not the hose. It is probably the inlet valve the hose connects to on the washer. The valve open electrically and they can go bad. They are easy enough to change and should not be more than about $20. Just to check, shut the water off, take the hose loose from the washer and see if water come out when you turn it back on. It could also be the temperature control, but the fill valve is much more likely.
