Is a black awning cooler in the summertime than a white awning?
No, a black awning would actually absorb more of the light spectrum thus being hotter. A white awning would reflect more of the spectrum making it cooler. However the heat of the black awning would heat the air closest to it making it rise. The rising hot air would suck cooler air towards the awning creating a draft or air current which could make the air under the awning seem cooler. This same effect was noted in an article on burquas where the black burqa actually cooed the wearer.
