That is smart AND instinctive, your monitor knows when it needs to return to it's optimal environment.
Think of it as a built in "alarm system" that warn when conditions need to change one way ot the other.
I would wager to say from my own personal observations that most reptiles can sense barometric conditions as well, and will behave accordingly.
Certain animals recognise rainfall as feeding opportunity, and know when a weather shift is taking place.
