Q: Why is power nap running my fans?

Mid 2011 Macbook air with Power Nap firmware update, and power nap enabled in settings.

Went to pickup the air from where it had been sitting, lid closed,  plugged in for 12 hours to try air play mirroing( which works great btw ) only to hear the fans running. The air was a bit hot, fans at about half speed. 

 

This is strange to me because fans are not suposed to run when in power nap, and if it gets hot it is suposed to stop doing the power nap stuff.

 

Anyone else have this happen?

MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion
