Default window AC electric usage increasing a days wears on...

I plugged my window AC into a "killawatt". It was running 900 watts,
then the past few days it's been climbing to 1000, then 1100, even
1200 as the day wears on -- and the sun beats down on the unit to the
west side.

Suppose shading this could make a big (300 w) difference?
