(NZ) A few straight forward questions

Hey everyone, first post here.

I've got my PPL with just over 200 hours so far, but I haven't had a serious straight forward answer to these questions so far, even from the CAA themselves.

What is the correct definition for AWIB?

The CAA CPL Meteorology and CAA CPL Law syllabuses both quote separate things. I've heard all of the following;

-Aerodrome and Weather Information Broadcast.
-Aerodrome Weather and Information Broadcast.
-Aerodrome Weather Information Broadcast.

One more, When is the coldest time of the day?

Several people have said just before sunrise, several said after.
Personally I would say just after sunrise - as the level of insolation is still less than the level of terrestrial radiation at sunrise. So it would still be cooling down. Is this correct?

Thanks in advance guys
