I didn't think of that. It returned to "normal" early on Friday morning

While there is noise on my graphs that is almost certainly due to the
network, there is definitely a correlation between ambient temperature
and the slope of the graph, with a distinct 24 hour cycle most of the
time (admittedly network traffic could also have this pattern), which
probably accounts for something like half of my +-2 ms.
