I went into settings and time/date on the menu and ticked the auto UTC box.
Everything then re-set itself for the correct GMT +1 time...VERY ODD
This has happened to me too.

I would guess from the vehicle sitting overnight the heater core turns cold and just blows out cold air since the vehicle is not running.

I would say if the vehicle set just for a couple of hours there would still be some thought of heat left in the heater core. But for sitting overnight I would think not.
