Air masses having different temperatures routinely move around, much like water in a bathtub sloshes when pushed back and forth.  Apparently some warm air moved in and your sensor detected it.

Minor fluctuations in temperature are not uncommon, especially later at night.  Minor increases in wind can stir up the air and warmer pockets of air can pass by as well.
