What temp should the fan kick in when stuck in traffic

Hi,

It seems lately that when I am stuck in traffic the temperature gets awful high.
I have seen it get as high as 215 and the fan never starts. Is this normal or am I off to the service department? Thanks for any input! It's an 05 SS/SC that's just about to hit 10,000 miles. I have only noticed this since my last oil change.

That is normal, it'll kick on around 225 like dstin said. If you kick the a/c on while you're in heavy traffic it'll kick your fan on automatically and your temps will drop right away. Works at the track as well.
