Fever temperature
Although normal body temperature without fever is generally spoken of as 98.6°F (37°C), human temperature tends to vary over the course of the day, from about 97.6°F (36.4°C) in the morning to about 99.5°F (37.5°C) in the late afternoon— and what’s normal for one person can vary above or below the average temperature by as much as one degree. Although minimal increases may simply be caused by hot weather or being bundled up in too much clothing, most people can feel a difference in their body temperature that they will call a fever once it reaches 100.5°F (38°C) or 101°F (38.5°C).
