Greetings once more:
About 3 years ago I did a temp study for my own curiosity in several  hives.
The purpose was to see how well the colonies dealt with day/night temp  
fluctuation.
Using many probes and readouts that were within +/-  half a degree  tolerance 
things were plotted out in Excel
One of the things that I did establish is that once the hive was in full  
gear , regardless of outside temps the inside was maintained at around 34-35  
deg. C all the time.
I learned a lot about the situation in a hive.
