First off, how is the engine running? If it's running well, then ignore the temperature. Temps count for something only after you have the engine running properly. You would then check the temp and see what it is. It can tell you if something has changed. It cannot tell you if you have the engine running correctly. If the engine's been set up correctly, then a change in temp readings can tell you something's off, and you now have some detective work to do. However, you would also likely notice something off in the sound, performance, or handling of the engine. We tend to ignore temps when operating our engines. We go by how they sound and how they perform. That's your true clue.
