How about the takeoff into cool air near the runway (Lower Density Altitude) and then climbing into the warmer area on departure (Higher Density Altitude). This could be a new form of windshear on departure!
And of course the temperature would be specific to the runways closest to the grass. I can just imagine the ATIS.
