A temperature of over 101 F. (38.33 C.) is considered high for an adult. It is called a "low grade fever" if it is between normal (98.6 F.) and 101 F. Sustained fever at or over 103 F. should be investigated by a health care professional and 104 F. or over is a situation that needs urgent intervention and treatment.
