4th vs 5th gear over heat (with bumper block and belly pan)

I was driving up the canyon in the snow. I could not go that fast. I was trying to stay in 5th gear but had shift down to 4th. Was in 4th for a bit and was driving at 3000 or + a little bit. I noticed my temps on my scan gauge going up. It has gone up from 182f to 198f with out the needle moving. But this time it the needle got up to the 3/4 mark just under the red line. This is the second time I have noticed the needle moving.

Has anyone had this problem before?
