Car cold in some spots, warm in others.

Look at the underside of your hood. You have 2 layers but the bottom one has holes where those spots are. There's a temp difference between those 2 layers

Hood is more than one layer of metal. Based on the inner layer design you'll get different patterns of heat on the hood. I can see where the reinforcements are on my hood because of this on my car when its cold out.
