Short answer: The engine is working harder to keep the inside of the car cool, so it heats up.Detailed answer: The temperature of the engine rises due to the extra work. The opposite is true too. If you need to cool down the engine temperature on a hot day, open your windows and turn on the heater to maximum. This will dissipate more of the heat being produced in the engine, especially if you are stuck in slow traffic, where the radiator is not getting sufficient airflow because of the low fan speed when you are idling. If fact running the engine up above idle will help the engine temperature go down in this case.

Then you can have a block heater installed ( if you do not have one of course ).
