I'm not a mechanic / technician but it sounds like your engine cooling
thermostat is sticking open ( assuming that the electric engine cooling fans
are not running continuously )

If the thermostat on a 1996 Ford Windstar has been replaced but it still only blows cold air and the gauge rises above half when sitting still what could be wrong?
I would expect a plugged heater core.Take your hand and feel the two heater hoses that pass thru the firewall on the passenger side; if one is hot and the other is much cooler, than you heater core is plugged and needs replacement.

Check coolant level..... hot coolant runs through the heater core and the blower motor blow air across it to create hot air........most likely a failing thermostat and. Possibly a water pump on its way out.
