Was a very hot day today and when I started up car and drove a few hundred feet I had a check engine light on. Any idea what may cause this?

My first guess would be some sort of vacuum leak.

Usually it is caused by a vacuum leak. If it fixed itself it must be some valve stuck for a moment.

I did find the hose that goes from the bottom of the air cleaner housing to the secondary air injection pump completely disconnected. Fixed this and no further errors.

Give it time...

Did you have any work done - like an oil change - lately?
That hose disconnected should have caused the secondary air system to set a DTC.

(I'm just jealous because I have been trying to cure my lean (multiplicative) codes for a while now).
