I would suggest using a sensor to record the cumulative temperature hours.
You can zero the sensor, then accumulate the hourly temperature.
Then have a rule to alert you when the limit (40 or 960 is reached).
By making it a sensor, you can see the trend and any anomalies in the data (ie if an hour is missed etc).
From the trend, you can extrapolate a likely finish time also.
Have a look at how I did a rainfall sensor for some inspiration for the sensor.
