That sounds too hot, if that’s the overall temperature. I’m not saying make your hot end cooler, because often they do want to be quite warm, but you need more of a thermal gradient. That’s why I favor using humungous clear plastic storage tubs for a horned frog. The floor doesn’t conduct heat around as much as dangerously as glass does, and the sheer size of it buys you a huge margin of error on temperature flunctuations.
