I feel more heat from the windshield(shaded Area) than the roof glass.
It is about 66F today and I took thermal photos with Flir Camera.
The windshield temperature from the inside is about 6.5 degrees higher than the roof.
It looks like the windshield thermal protection layer is different from the roof.

It is, windshields have to meet certain tinting standards but carmakers can factory tint any rear quarter glass in a car.
 
Those pics are cool, if you'll pardon the pun.
