Hey, that's rad that you gave this a try!

Temperature hasn't been a problem for me. My computer works fine in 35C.

There's a section in my post about dealing with rain. I used tarps. Power was provided via a weather proof extension cable.

Insects can be troublesome, I had a lot of wasps die in my coffee. Only two stings in the whole summer of working out side! As long as you don't swat them they are pretty benign. I think this is really a regional thing, there are not many bugs where I am in Colorado, nor in Eastern Washington.

I haven't had a problem with environmental noise, but I also often listen to music while I work.

The first few days I experimented with outdoor computing I was a bit distracted by the novelty of it. Takes a while to ease into it, but that starting overhead is well worth it imho
