One of two possibilities;
1. The signal propagation changes as it cools down when the sun sets.
2. There is interference from equipment that operates only during the evening.

Your signals are very weak and either cause is just as likely.

I'd monitor the signal strength meter on your TV set. If the signal quality drops slowly, consider propagation issues, if it drops suddenly, consider interference.

Propagation issues can be helped by raising the antenna. Interference should be tracked down by turning suspect equipment off.
