I found this which suggests it's still within 'normal' range (go to study at bottom)

The average normal oral temperature for adults is around 36.8 degrees Celsius.
A normal oral temperature range in Celsius is typically between 36.1°C to 37.2°C. Any temperature above or below this range may indicate a fever or hypothermia.
If your body temperature is 98.7 degrees celsius then you have probably been poached or par broiled. The boiling point of water is 100 degrees. Oral temperature for the average human is 37 cel. or 98.6 F.
The average normal oral temperature is 98.6°F (37°C). An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature.
An axillary temperature is typically 0.5°F (0.3°C) lower than an oral temperature. Therefore, an axillary temperature taken as 98.6°F would be roughly equivalent to an oral temperature of 99.1°F.
The average normal oral temperature for adults is around 36.8 degrees Celsius.
A normal oral temperature range in Celsius is typically between 36.1°C to 37.2°C. Any temperature above or below this range may indicate a fever or hypothermia.
The normal oral temperature is about 35-36 degrees Celsius and 96-98 degrees Fahrenheit. It is about a degree lower than central (rectal or tympanic) temperatures.
In Fahrenheit, yes. The normal body temperature (oral) is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit or 37 degrees celsius.
96.8-99.3
If your body temperature is 98.7 degrees celsius then you have probably been poached or par broiled. The boiling point of water is 100 degrees. Oral temperature for the average human is 37 cel. or 98.6 F.
A generally accepted normal adult range for a rectal temperature is 98.6 degrees to 100.6 degrees Fahrenheit or 37 degrees to 38.1 degrees Celsius.Baby: Normal rectal temperature is 100.2 degrees Fahrenheit or less (37.9 degrees Celsius or less)*.*These are the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended ranges. It is suggested that you discuss this with your baby's health care provider.Good Luck Mate
Although it is commonly thought that 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit is the average oral temperature for an adult, normal temperature can range from 97.1 degrees to about 99.5 degrees. It is a good idea to determine your own normal body temperature by taking your temperature when you feel well. This can also be done during your regular doctor's visit, but it is best to do it yourself for a few reasons: Different thermometers can have slightly different results, and body temperature can change with weather, time of day, and physical activity. To understand your body temperature, take your healthy temperature multiple times in a variety of conditions, using the same thermometer. Any temperature difference of more than a degree from your normal could be a fever.
The average normal human body temperature is 37 degrees C (98.6 degress F) but it can vary somewhat for an individual.The average adult temperature is 36.8 degrees C (98.2 degrees F). Older people will average a bit less. These values can also vary with time of day, with a typical individual range of 0.5 degrees C (0.9 degrees F)Temperatures can and will be markedly different with exposure to cold or hot environmental temperatures.According to Mosby's Canadian Textbook for the Support Worker:Average Human Temp;:Oral (mouth) - 37 c (98.6 f)Tympanic (ear) - 37.4 c (99.3 f)Axillary (underarm) - 36.5 c (97.8 f)
A normal body temperature of 99.6 degrees Fahrenheit is typically associated with an oral measurement. Standard normal body temperature can vary slightly depending on the individual and the method used for measurement, with oral temperatures averaging around 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. However, temperatures can range from 97 to 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit in healthy adults. Other measurement sites, such as rectal or ear, may yield slightly higher readings.
As 37o Celsius is standard this is a bit high. Let's see. Temperature Fahrenheit = Temperature Celsius(1.80) + 32 = 100.4o Fahrenheit =====================a bit high and indicative of some malaise, but not life threatening
A body temperature of 99.6 degrees Fahrenheit is considered normal for the rectal area, where temperatures tend to be higher than other measurement sites. However, it is slightly elevated compared to the typical oral temperature range, which is generally around 97.6 to 98.6 degrees F. For axillary (underarm) measurements, a normal temperature is usually lower, around 96.6 to 98.0 degrees F. Thus, 99.6 degrees F. is generally considered elevated for oral and axillary readings but within normal limits for rectal measurements.
