Blood pressure tends to be highest in the morning...that is when cortisol is highest.
It will also read higher after a hot bath or shower. And also if you have a full bladder (don't know why this is but I read it in a medical text once)
BP can vary quite a bit during the day too. I learned that when I was pregnant and my BP went up in the second trimester. The kidney specialist made me keep an HOURLY log.
