That temperature is the air temp in the incubator. It's a meaningless figure, the guage is there for the humidity.

The water wiggler temp is stable at 99F

Good luck with your hatch.

We are now up to 4 chicks. One in brooder, the other three are still in the incubator until around 10 pm CDT.

As far as I can tell all the eggs but 2 have pipped. The other two may have, but I can't see.​
