ATMP is still ambient temp - the reading should be the same, probably just did not update - one number came from the sensor, and the other number was relayed via iBus... it is like watching your own camera on TV while recording, you get that delay thing...

check to see if the outside temp and the ATEMP are the same on other occassions...

"Freaking HOT" is what that means.
