What are the ambient temps when you see those?

I only see temps of 240 in the middle of summer when the outside temp is in the 90's and I am in stop and go traffic. At highway speeds with same summer temps I will see ~220.

Now in the Fall here on the east coast my oil temp rarely goes over 200 when I am on the highway.
