The only "fan" that continues to run after the engine is shut off is the radiator fan. Perhaps you think it's at the rear because of tricks that sound play when the sound waves bounce around off of solid objects. This is a pretty good possibility because you say that it happens more often in warmer weather and it takes longer for engines to cool off in warmer weather.
Another possibility is that the power antenna motor retracts the antenna after the ignition is shut off. My '89 Cutlass did this (it kinda sounds like a fan). I unplugged the power connector to the motor so that I didn't have to listen to it anymore.
