Typically, yes.  In my case it starts out at 105 when it’s in the low 70s and 
by late i the day when it’s in the 90s it’s off the scale - it just goes blank

Thermistor is another Mouser part, about $2.00.  I bought three of them so I 
could have a couple spares.  I think the bill was $12.00 with shipping.
