Thermometer On Light Hood

When I put my thermomoeter next to the top of the plants, its 93 degrees, but when I put it on the hood with the magnetic strip, its 70. Which one of these locations would be most accurate? Its one of those plastic accurite temp/humidity ones u get at walmart

Are the plants on the hood? Put it at plant level but in shade.
