ANSWER:Its not my fault, its asphalt. Its called the concrete effect. The more an area is paved or covered in cement, it retains the dialy absorption of sunlight and it takes longer for this heat to dissapate. Buildings help in this as well. It retains the heat and takes longer to cool off after the daily sunlight.

Why does air cool as it goes up a mountain?

In relative terms cooler air will descend while warmer air will rise. Many times mountains form the border between two differing airmasses. This can be seen at the front range of the rocky mountains. Cooler air from Canada will be on the west side of the range while warmer air from the gulf of Mexico will be on the east side. When these two air masses meet, the cooler Canadian air will descend down the front range of the mountains beneath the warmer air.
