Most natural streams warm up during the day due to insolation. (= from the sun)
However, in mountainous country, due to glacial melt during the day, the water may be colder in the evening than in the morning, when its main feed is from grassland and forest.
Water enters your house through pipes. Before they enter your house these pipes are underground and are insulated by several feet of dirt so the water in them retains their initial cold temperature. Once the pipes enter your house they are exposed to warmer conditions and an effective heat transfer occurs. During the day, when the water is in use, the water goes from the cooler underground conditions and passes through the warmer conditions quickly and little if any heat transfer occurs. During the night the water is not in use and it sits in the pipes all night long. The water pipes within your house therefore have a chance to warm up. This is why when you turn the cold water tap on in the morning it is initially warm but after running for a short while it turns cold.

Why is the water in the morning colder than in the evening?
The water is colder in the morning because it hasn't been heated by the sun. The water in the evening has been exposed to the heat of the sun all day, whereas the darkness of night allows it to cool before the morning.
What happens during the at the beach?
The water is cooler than the land, and wind blows toward the water

Why is the evaporation of water a physical property rather than a chemical property?
During evaporation the structure of water remain unchanged.
Why does the water in a swimming pool feel cooler than air during the day but warmer than the air at night?
During the day - the side of the Earth facing the Sun heats up - the portion facing away from the sun is in night time - and thus is not being heated... making it cooler !

Why does my scale give me 2 diffrnt numbers in one day?
If you weigh yourself in the morning, especially after you've gone to the bathroom, you will weigh less, than if you weigh yourself at night. If you weigh yourself at night or anytime after you have just eaten, you will usually weigh more than you weigh first thing in the morning. You weigh less in the morning because you have gone 6 to 8 hours without food, and while you are sleeping your body has been working to process it. Plus, the water that's in our skin excreted into the air. We lose water retention during the night and that's why we should drink plenty of water during the day. At nighttime, not only do we have the food we've just eaten, but we also have the water retention as well.
Why does dew form on grass in the early morning?
I will try to make it as simple as possible, but first of all the dew is formed during the night. This happens because there is always some water in the air. When it is hot, more water can be solved in the air than when it is cold. So after a warm day, the air is full of water in gas form. Later on when the evening comes the air is cooled down, at this time the air is super-saturated with water and the water in the air starts to condense. It is this condensed water that we call dew.

What happens during the day of the beach?

Because of this anomalous expansion of water that water pipes sometimes burst during winter?
Anomalous expansion of water and bursting of water pipes during winter is because ice takes more space than water

Why is it cooler at the beach during the day?
Usually a beach has a breeze blowing in from the ocean. This movement of air can cool your skin and make the temperature seem less. I would think that the air is still in the morning and as the sun heats up the air and land, this results in movement of the air.
What are drops of water that collect on vegetation other objects and the ground during a calm clear night?
Water in the form of droplets that appears on thin, exposed objects in the morning or evening are called dew drops.As the exposed surface cools by radiating its heat, atmospheric moisture condenses at a rate greater than that at which it can evaporate, resulting in the formation of water droplets.
